Used as a muscle relaxant to relieve discomfort associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions. It works by acting on the centers in the brain and spinal cord to reduce muscle stiffness and spasms. Commonly prescribed alongside rest and physical therapy for short-term relief. Often used to treat strains, sprains, and other muscle injuries. Not intended for long-term use and typically part of a broader treatment plan including pain management and rehabilitation.
