Medical Overview
Myolastane is listed as Analgesic / NSAID containing Tetrazepam. A pain reliever or anti-inflammatory medicine, depending on the active ingredient.
Myolastan (tetrazepam) — the retired benzodiazepine muscle relaxant: decades of regional back-spasm prescriptions ended by the EMA’s 2013 marketing suspension over rare serious skin reactions (SJS spectrum) outweighing modest benefit. Practical message: old boxes belong in pharmacy disposal, not drawers; tizanidine short courses, baclofen for true spasticity, and physio cover its ground more safely.
