Arive 25 MG Tablet is a muscle relaxant medicine. It is used for the treatment of spasticity (a condition where the muscles contract continuously, causing them to stiffen or tighten) due to various conditions affecting the brain and spinal cord, such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury/diseases, etc. This medicine works by inhibiting the release of certain chemicals in the brain and spinal cord, which helps to relieve pain and improve muscle movement. Arive 25 MG Tablet can cause side effects like headache, constipation, nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, frequent urination, tiredness, etc. Consult your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen. This medicine may cause dizziness, drowsiness, or blurred vision. Hence avoid performing activities that require mental alertness, like driving vehicles or operating machines, if you experience such symptoms after taking this medicine. Arive 25 MG Tablet may be taken with food to avoid stomach irritation. Take it at the same time every day to maintain a constant level of this medicine in your body. Do not stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor, as it may cause withdrawal symptoms. Arive 25 MG Tablet is not recommended if you are allergic to it. Inform your doctor about your current medications and existing medical conditions. This will help your doctor adjust the dose to avoid side effects. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
