Description
Orphenadrine Citrate-CAPLIN-30 mg/mL is a sterile, fast-acting injectable formulation indicated for the relief of acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions. Operating as a centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxant, orphenadrine targets the central nervous system to effectively disrupt muscle spasms and diminish associated pain without directly relaxing tense muscles.
This preparation is packaged in 2 mL ampoules (containing a total of 60 mg of Orphenadrine Citrate per ampoule) and is designed for convenient clinical administration via Intramuscular (IM) or Intravenous (IV) routes.
