Patient/caregiver was educated on therapeutic uses of metaxall as follows:
Metaxall is used for relieving the muscle pain and spasms caused by various musculoskeletal disorders.
Disc prolapse or rupture
- Individuals with history of intervertebral disc prolapse or rupture can present with increased pressure upon and inflammation of nerves running along the spinal cord. This can result in abnormal muscle tone, muscle spasms, and pain & discomfort.
- Metaxall intake can contribute to sedation, relief of muscle spasms, thus leading to improved pain control.
Arthritis involving the back
- Arthritis involving the vertebrae can exert pressure on the spinal cord, inflame, irritate, and damage the nerves running along the spinal cord. This can result in abnormal muscle tone, muscle spasms, and pain & discomfort.
- Metaxall intake can contribute to sedation, relief of muscle spasms, thus leading to improved pain control.
Tension headaches
- Tension headache is a diffuse pain in the head, often precipitated by poorly controlled stress in life.
- This can present as mild to moderate headache with a feeling of tight band around the head, involuntary muscle contractions in the face, neck, & scalp, and heightened sensitivity to pain.
- Metaxall use, along with use of other medications such as, pain killers, can help with controlling the spasms and relief from pain & discomfort.
- Metaxall use, by depressing the brain and spinal cord, leads to sedation and dizziness, contributing to overall pain relief.
Other muscle pains
