Posted on Wed, 2 Mar 2016
Question: Hi Doctor,

Can thioact-D4 be taken instead of Brufen 400? The chemists say that you don't need burden because thioact-D4 is also a pain killer. Please advise.

Brief Answer:
Start with Thioact first.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Brufen is a pain killer and an anti inflammatory medicine. Thioact D4 is a muscle relaxant. It will not help to reduce the pain but will decrease the muscle spasm.
It is best to start with Thioact D4 and in case any pain is still present then do take brufen also for complete pain relief.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
