Thiocolchicoside (Muscoril, Myoril, Neoflax) is a muscle relaxant with anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.[3][4][5][6] It acts as a competitive GABAA receptor antagonist and also glycine receptor antagonist with similar potency and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors to a much lesser extent.[7][8] It has powerful convulsant activity and should not be used in seizure-prone individuals.[9][10][11]
Side effects
Side effect of thiocolchicoside can include nausea, somnolence, allergy and vasovagal reactions.[12]
Although muscle relaxant have major side effect of Sedation, but Thiocholchicoside is free from sedation effect possible due to non-interference with nicotinic receptors.[citation needed]
Pharmacokinetics
Thiocolchicoside is broken down in the body to a metabolite called 3-demethylthiocolchicine (also known as SL59.0955 or M2) that could damage dividing cells therefore inducing toxicity in the embryo, neoplastic changes and fertility reduction in males.[citation needed] Therefore recommended oral dose should not exceed 7 days and intramuscular dose duration should not exceed 5 days.[medical citation needed] Local skin preparations are less toxic.
