Description
Product Introduction:
Calpol T Tablet is a combination of two pain-relieving medicines—Tramadol and Paracetamol—used to treat moderate to severe pain. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as menstrual cramps, arthritis, headaches, muscle aches, and other types of severe discomfort. By combining an opioid pain reliever with a non-opioid analgesic, Calpol T Tablet effectively reduces pain and improves the quality of life for patients dealing with significant pain.
Key Ingredients:
- Tramadol (37.5mg): An opioid analgesic that works by blocking the transmission of pain signals to the brain, thus lowering the perception of pain.
- Paracetamol (325mg): A non-opioid analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer) that works by inhibiting the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause pain and fever.
How Calpol T Tablet Works:
- Tramadol acts on the central nervous system by binding to opioid receptors in the brain, which helps reduce the sensation of pain.
- Paracetamol works by inhibiting the enzymes responsible for the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that promote inflammation, pain, and fever. By reducing these chemicals, Paracetamol helps to alleviate pain.
Together, these ingredients provide effective relief from moderate to severe pain by targeting pain at both the central nervous system and the inflammatory pathways in the body.
