Description

Description

Wilgesic Forte is a higher-strength version of the orphenadrine citrate and paracetamol combination, formulated for more significant muscle pain, spasm, and stiffness when the standard-strength product doesn’t provide sufficient relief. As with the regular-strength version, orphenadrine works to relax tense muscles while paracetamol addresses the associated pain, making it suitable for more pronounced musculoskeletal discomfort under a doctor’s guidance.

Ingredients

Each tablet contains Orphenadrine Citrate 650mg and Paracetamol 50mg per the product’s labeled combination ratio. Inactive ingredients typically include microcrystalline cellulose, starch, and magnesium stearate, though these can vary by batch. Confirm exact per-tablet strengths against the printed packaging.

Dosage Form

Supplied as an oral tablet, packaged as 10 strips of 10 tablets each (100 tablets total per pack).

Uses

Used for more significant muscle pain, spasm, and stiffness where standard-strength relief isn’t adequate. Commonly used for musculoskeletal injuries, chronic muscle tension, or post-strain recovery under medical supervision. As with the standard-strength version, this higher-strength combination is generally intended for short courses during acute muscle pain rather than continuous long-term use, and your doctor will typically reassess the need for continued treatment after a limited period.

How to use

Take as directed by your doctor, generally with food or a full glass of water to reduce stomach upset. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration without medical guidance. Avoid alcohol, as it can intensify drowsiness and sedation from this medicine.

Side Effects

Common side effects include drowsiness, dry mouth, dizziness, and blurred vision, generally more pronounced at this higher strength. Avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how this medicine affects you. Less commonly, confusion, rapid heartbeat, or difficulty urinating can occur. Seek medical attention for severe drowsiness, breathing difficulty, or signs of an allergic reaction. If sedation is significant, taking your dose in the evening may help minimize daytime drowsiness. Avoid combining with other sedating medicines unless specifically advised by your doctor or pharmacist.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding should only occur under direct medical supervision due to limited safety data at this strength. Discuss risks and benefits with your doctor before use if pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

Storage Instructions

Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Keep in original blister packaging until use, and store out of reach of children. Keep track of how many doses you have remaining, since running out mid-course of muscle pain treatment can interrupt recovery; contact your pharmacy in advance of your supply running low.

Disclaimer

Always use this medicine strictly according to your doctor’s instructions and prescribed dosage.
