My father is 67 years old and he has just returned from a knee surgery. He was hit by a car and luckily, only his knee was hurt. Still, he uses some pain killers and Dantrolene for the high temperature. I have been wondering about that drug, is it effective at all? Should we search for some other way to deal with his problem?

Well, if the doctor gave him the drug, then I guess it should be effective. I know that its first function is to deal with multiple sclerosis and other nerve conditions. Still, it can deal with high temperature too. There are side effects, and after a long period of usage, liver might be damaged. So, be cautious, look for any kind of change.
