What Are The Side Effects Of Zerodol TH Tablets?

Hello Doctor, My dad has been advised to take Zerodol TH tablet and when taken, it relieves him of his pain problems in legs within 30 mins. I'm wondering if this is a Steroid based product? If not, what are the side effects of taking it?

Thanks,
San

No this is not steroid based product.
It contains acecofenac & thiocolchicoside.
Aceclofenac is non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with anti inflammatory & pain reliving properties.
Thicochicoside is having muscle relaxant, anti-inflammatory & analgesic activity.
It is a safe & good combination to take having very few side effects.
It may cause the acidity as a side effect which is usually rare and can be prevented by taking the drug after food, or having food such as curd, buttermilk etc.
If the problem of acidity is more then you can have one of the antacids such as cap omeprazole or cap rabeprazole two times a day before food.
