Help Keep Patients Getting Orphengesic Forte Safe

September 2020

Orphengesic Forte (orphenadrine/aspirin/caffeine) will be touted for acute muscle pain...as this old med tries for a new life.

A new company is dusting off the brand...and hyping it as a "non-opioid, non-controlled, non-addictive" Rx option for acute pain.

Orphenadrine is a muscle relaxant...aspirin adds analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects...and caffeine may boost analgesic efficacy.
