Etoria 90 mg 28 tablets

Etoria 90 mg 28 tablets:

• Etoricoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) used as an anti-inflammatory pain reliever.
• It relieves pain and inflammation (inflammation) in conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, and can also be used to treat gout for a limited time.
• The medication works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), a natural chemical.
• This enzyme helps develop other chemicals in the body known as prostaglandins.
• Pain and inflammation are caused by prostaglandins, which are released at sites of injury or damage. Due to the inhibition of COX-2 enzymes, less prostaglandins are secreted, which reduces pain and inflammation.
• Etoricoxib is used for adults and adolescents 16 years of age or older to relieve the symptoms of osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis, and the pain and signs of inflammation associated with acute gouty arthritis.
• Etoricoxib is indicated in adults and adolescents 16 years of age and older for the short-term treatment of moderate pain associated with dental surgery.
• The decision to prescribe a selective COX-2 inhibitor should be based on an assessment of the overall risk of the individual patient.

Instructions for use:

• Etoricoxib tablets should be taken only once a day.
• You can take the tablet with or without food, but taking it without food can cause it to work more quickly.
• If you have arthritis, you will likely need to take a daily pill to reduce inflammation and pain.
• Take one tablet daily for up to eight days if you have acute gout.
