DISTALGESIC TABLET 37.5/325MG 10S

Product Description

Distalgesic Tablets are a combination prescription medication containing Tramadol HCl (a centrally acting opioid analgesic) and Paracetamol (a non-opioid pain reliever). This dual-action formula works by reducing pain signals in the brain while enhancing overall analgesic effect, making it effective for moderate to severe pain.

It is typically prescribed when single pain relievers are not sufficient.
