Etoshine 90mg Strip Of 10 Tablets
Description
Etoshine 90 Tablet is a prescription pain reliever used to manage pain, swelling, and inflammation in conditions like gout and arthritis. It helps reduce discomfort caused by joint problems, including redness, stiffness, and tenderness, enabling patients to move more comfortably in their daily activities. The tablet contains etoricoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor that relieves pain and inflammation by blocking the release of certain substances.
This medicine should always be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not exceed the recommended dose or continue treatment longer than advised, as misuse can increase health risks. Etoshine 90 can be taken with or without food, but taking it with food may help lessen stomach discomfort.
Like other pain medications, Etoshine 90 may cause some side effects. Common ones include stomach pain, swelling (oedema), dizziness, headache, irregular heartbeat, and increased blood pressure. While these usually resolve on their own, consult your doctor if they persist or worsen. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe side effects such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or sudden swelling.
Before starting this medication, inform your doctor about your medical history, especially if you have stomach ulcers, high blood pressure, heart disease, kidney problems, or liver issues. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption while taking Etoshine 90, as it may worsen dizziness and stomach-related side effects. Also, share details of all other medicines you are taking, as some drugs may interact with etoricoxib.
Etoshine 90 Tablet is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless prescribed by a doctor. Alternative brands containing etoricoxib include Nucoxia 90 tablet, Fitdent 90 tablet, Intacoxia 90 tablet, Etozox 90 tablet, Ezact 90 tablet, and Etos 90 tablet. Always follow your doctor’s guidance for the safe and effective use of this medication.
