Soma Compound

Soma Compound is used for:

Relieving pain, muscle spasm, and limited movement caused by acute painful conditions of the bone and muscle.

Soma Compound is a muscle relaxant and analgesic combination. It works by blocking prostaglandin synthesis, which helps to reduce pain and inflammation. The sedative properties of carisoprodol may produce muscle relaxation, which helps to relieve pain.
