How Carisoma Compound Tablet works

Carisoma Compound Tablet is a combination of three medicines: carisoprodol, caffeine and paracetamol which relieve pain and relax the muscles. Carisoprodol is a muscle relaxant. It works on the centres in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm and to improve pain and movement of muscles. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). It blocks the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that are responsible for pain and fever. Caffeine increases the effectiveness of paracetamol.
