Description
Dantrolene Sodium 25 mg tablets are a skeletal muscle relaxant primarily used to treat conditions associated with muscle spasticity. The medication is effective in managing malignant hyperthermia, a rare but serious reaction to certain anesthetics, and is also utilized in the treatment of conditions like spasticity resulting from neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and stroke.
The typical dosage of Dantrolene Sodium is individualized based on the patient's response and the condition being treated. It is available in a bottle containing 100 tablets, each containing 25 mg of the active ingredient. It is important to follow prescribed dosages to avoid complications and side effects.
Common side effects of Dantrolene include drowsiness, dizziness, fatigue, and diarrhea. More severe reactions may include liver toxicity, which requires close monitoring during treatment. It is advised that healthcare providers assess liver function periodically throughout the treatment regimen.
