Tonoflex-P Tablet (37.5 mg/325 mg)
Tonoflex-P is a prescription medication that combines Tramadol (37.5 mg) and Paracetamol (325 mg). It is commonly used to manage moderate to severe pain as the combination is more effective than a single medicine. Being an opioid agonist, Tramadol lowers the perception of pain. Paracetamol reduces fever and inflammation. This drug is particularly effective for musculoskeletal pain, post-operative pain, and conditions like osteoarthritis.
