Tizanidine

Tizanidine is a medication used to help relax muscles that are tight or spastic, often caused by conditions like multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injuries. It works by blocking nerve signals that cause muscle stiffness and spasms, making movement easier and reducing discomfort. Tizanidine is usually taken orally and prescribed by a doctor. Common side effects may include drowsiness, dry mouth, or dizziness. It’s important to follow prescribed doses carefully, as misuse can lead to side effects or interactions with other medications. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice and monitoring.
