Etozox 90 Tablet
Description
Etozox 90 Tablet is a pain-relieving medicine commonly used to reduce discomfort and swelling in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and after dental surgery. It helps improve joint mobility and eases daily activities by reducing pain and inflammation.
The active ingredient in Etozox 90 Tablet is etoricoxib, which belongs to the class of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation, providing targeted relief in affected areas.
Etozox 90 Tablet should always be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not exceed the recommended dose or take it for a longer duration than advised, as this can increase the risk of heart problems and other side effects. Always follow your doctor’s guidance regarding timing and dosage.
Some common side effects of Etozox 90 Tablet may include stomach discomfort, nausea, dizziness, or mild headache. Most of these effects are temporary and resolve on their own. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or swelling in the legs or feet.
Before starting Etozox 90 Tablet, inform your doctor about your complete medical history, including any heart, kidney, liver, or stomach issues. Additionally, please list all other medications or supplements you are taking to help avoid potential interactions. Proper use under medical supervision ensures safe and effective pain relief.
