Dear sir, 1. Methmild SR means the tablet is Sustained Release. Many medicines come in this formulation to reduce their acute side effects. Apart from this, there is no change in the action of the drug. 2. Flunil in tablet or capsule form is only for patient's convenience. The action and effect is the same. Regards!
