    Product Description

    Tolperisone is a piperidine that acts as an inhibitor of voltage-gated sodium channels with an IC50 value of 198 µM, for inhibition of peak sodium currents evoked by step depolarizations in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, in vitro.1 Tolperisone acts as an antispastic agent that attenuates monosynaptic, disynaptic, and polysynaptic reflux response to dorsal root stimulation in vivo. Formulations containing tolperisone are used as analgesics and muscle relaxants.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
