Mephenoxalone is a muscle relaxant and anxiolytic agent, with mild sedative properties, previously used for the symptomatic relief of muscle spasms and anxiety-related muscle tension. It has been used mainly in combination with analgesics for musculoskeletal pain; however, it is not widely approved or used today due to the development of more effective and safer alternatives.
No original pharmacokinetic studies or primary human clinical data are available in the published literature. The following are estimated parameters for a healthy adult based on analogy with other muscle relaxants and structural analogues.
