Description
Etoricoxib-90mg Tablets – Millions of people deal with joint pain, arthritis, or inflammation every single day. These conditions make even the simplest tasks difficult, like opening a jar, climbing stairs, or getting a good night’s sleep. Over time, they affect not just the body but also mood and overall quality of life.
Etoricoxib tablets are prescribed to relieve pain and inflammation in adults and adolescents above 16 years. They come packed in (Alu-Alu) blister strips that keep each tablet safe from moisture and humidity.
This medicine belongs to a class called NSAIDs. What makes it different is that it targets inflammation directly while being gentler on the stomach compared to older pain relievers. It works by blocking the COX-2 enzyme—the one responsible for causing pain and swelling in the body.
One more advantage: Etoricoxib stays active in the body for up to 22 hours. This means just one tablet a day is enough to keep pain under control.
F.C. Remedies manufactures and supplies these tablets under the brand name Fetoxib-90. The company is an ISO-certified pharmaceutical company based in Panchkula. It specializes in PCD pharma franchises and third-party manufacturing services.
What is the Working Mechanism of Etoricoxib Tablets?
Etoricoxib is a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor. It works by blocking the COX-2, which is typically induced at sites of inflammation. It suppresses the prostaglandin synthesis responsible for pain and inflammation in conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and acute gouty arthritis.
As it leaves the protective COX-1 enzyme in the stomach relatively unaffected, Etoricoxib is associated with a lower risk of gastrointestinal side effects as compared to non-selective NSAIDs.
The drug has high absorption power and has a long elimination half-life. This allows easy once-daily dosing.
