How to use:
Follow your doctor's instructions when taking Etozox 90mg Tablet.
Usually taken once a day, with or without food.
Do not crush or chew the tablet; just swallow it whole with a glass of water.
For the best benefits, take it at the same time every day.
Do not take more than the specified dose or time.
For long-term problems like arthritis, taking the medicine as directed on a regular basis gives you the most benefit.
How it works:
Etoricoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, is in Etozox:
It stops the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme from making prostaglandins, which are substances that induce pain and swelling.
It relieves pain by just affecting COX-2 and leaving COX-1 alone, which lowers the risk of stomach ulcers compared to earlier NSAIDs.
It helps with pain, redness, edema, and stiffness in the joints and muscles.
Selective COX-2 inhibition makes it safer for the stomach while yet effectively treating chronic pain.
