Afloqualone

Afloqualone is a quinazolinone derivative that acts as a muscle relaxant. It is used primarily to treat muscle spasms and rigidity associated with various conditions, including cervical spondylosis, lumbar pain, and spastic paralysis. Afloqualone is believed to exert its muscle relaxant effects by acting on the central nervous system, although the exact mechanism of action is not fully elucidated. It is available in some countries as a prescription medication, often in tablet form. Side effects may include drowsiness, dizziness, and gastrointestinal disturbances. It is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to quinazolinone derivatives.
