How Proket Forte Products work
Ketoprofen + Thiocolchicoside is a combination of two medicines: Ketoprofen + Thiocolchicoside1 and Ketoprofen + Thiocolchicoside2 which relieve pain and relax the muscles. Ketoprofen + Thiocolchicoside1 is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Ketoprofen + Thiocolchicoside2 is a muscle relaxant. It works by acting on the centers in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm and to improve pain and movement of muscles.
