Thiocolchicoside dosage concern
Actually i have severe upper back pain at a point of rhomboid muscle so my uncle told me that take thiocolchicoside 4mg per day it will relieve your pain so i took medicine for 10 days after that i read online that you should take thiocolchicoside only for 7 days per day 16 mg or there will be side effects like cancer or infertility. But i took it for 10 days so is it normal or anything concerning?
