What does it do?

Aplocqualone belongs to a class of muscle relaxants that act on the central nervous system. It is primarily used to relieve muscle spasms or stiffness. This ingredient improves symptoms by regulating the transmission of signals between nerves and muscles.

Aplocqualone inhibits the transmission of nerve signals in the central nervous system, reducing excessive tension in the muscles. This leads to muscle relaxation and relief from pain or spasms. It helps facilitate normal movement by regulating the interaction between nerves and muscles.

Good to know

Additionally, it is distinguished from local muscle relaxants in that it acts directly on the central nervous system. Due to these properties, it is suitable for the treatment of specific muscle spasms.
