It is designed to be dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. The gel-like consistency of the formulation ensures that the active ingredients are absorbed effectively into the targeted area.
Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain. It is commonly used to treat muscle spasms and to relieve pain, stiffness, and discomfort caused by strains, sprains, or injuries to your muscles. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. It is used to treat mild to moderate pain, or signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Lidocaine HCl and Tetracaine HCl are local anesthetics that work by blocking nerve signals in your body. Lidocaine HCl is used to relieve nerve pain from shingles (postherpetic neuralgia). Tetracaine HCl is used to numb the skin or surfaces of the eyes. It works by blocking nerve signals in your body. Lidocaine HCl and Tetracaine HCl are used together in this formulation to provide a numbing effect to relieve pain and discomfort.
This formulation is designed to provide targeted relief from pain and inflammation, and to relax the muscles in the affected area. It is particularly useful for patients who have difficulty swallowing oral medications, or for those who prefer a topical treatment option.

This formulation contains a combination of Cyclobenzaprine, Diclofenac, Lidocaine HCl, and Tetracaine HCl. Each of these active ingredients has its own potential for drug interactions, which can be amplified when used in combination. Therefore, it is crucial to consider the potential interactions of each component when prescribing this medication.
Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain. It may interact with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), increasing the risk of serious side effects such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, confusion, and increased heartbeats. It may also interact with drugs that cause drowsiness such as alcohol, antihistamines, drugs for sleep or anxiety, other muscle relaxants, and narcotic pain relievers.
Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. It may interact with anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs, and other NSAIDs, increasing the risk of bleeding. It may also interact with certain blood pressure medications, reducing their effectiveness. Furthermore, it may interact with certain drugs used for treating stomach ulcers or diabetes, potentially leading to adverse effects.
Lidocaine HCl and Tetracaine HCl are local anesthetics that work by blocking nerve signals in your body. They may interact with other local anesthetics and certain heart medications, potentially leading to serious side effects such as slow/irregular heartbeat and seizures. They may also interact with drugs that cause drowsiness, including alcohol, antihistamines, drugs for sleep or anxiety, and narcotic pain relievers.

This formulation combines four active ingredients: Cyclobenzaprine, Diclofenac, Lidocaine HCl, and Tetracaine HCl, each with a unique mechanism of action to provide pain relief and muscle relaxation. The gel is designed to be applied topically, directly to the area of discomfort, allowing for targeted treatment.
Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain. It is particularly effective in treating muscle spasms and associated pain. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. It is commonly used to treat mild to moderate pain, or signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Lidocaine HCl is a local anesthetic that works by causing temporary numbness/loss of feeling in the skin and mucous membranes. It does this by blocking the nerve signals in your body. Tetracaine HCl is another type of local anesthetic that works in a similar way to Lidocaine, but it is stronger and has a longer duration of action. The combination of these two anesthetics provides rapid and prolonged numbing effect, making the formulation particularly effective for severe or persistent pain.
The gel formulation allows for easy and precise application of the medication. The active ingredients are absorbed through the skin directly into the affected area, providing targeted relief. The gel also has a soothing effect and helps to keep the skin moisturized. The pump mechanism ensures that the correct dose is dispensed each time, reducing the risk of overuse or underuse.
This formulation is particularly effective in treating conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, muscle spasms, and other conditions associated with severe or persistent pain. It provides a combination of pain relief, inflammation reduction, and muscle relaxation, addressing multiple symptoms at once. As it is applied topically, it has fewer systemic side effects compared to oral medications.

Secondly, the inclusion of diclofenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), increases its capacity to soothe inflammation thereby enabling it be useful in cases where inflammation is the predominant symptom such as in arthritis or after a physical injury.
The presence of both lidocaine HCl and tetracaine HCl, which are local anesthetics, may extend its indications to procedures that require numbing of a localized area of the body. This could include minor dermatological procedures or as part of a multimodal pain management plan for more extensive procedures. Additionally, lidocaine can provide symptomatic relief for patients with conditions such as shingles or other forms of nerve pain.
