DESCRIPTION
Piroxicam works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. Piroxicam is used to reduce the pain, inflammation, and stiffness caused by rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Piroxicam works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), which reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins, the key mediators of pain, inflammation, and fever.
Benefits:
- Effective long-term pain relief: Reduces joint pain, stiffness, and swelling in arthritis and musculoskeletal disorders.
- Once-daily dosage: Due to its long half-life, piroxicam provides 24-hour symptom relief with just one dose per day.
- Anti-inflammatory action: Helps reduce inflammation and swelling, improving mobility and quality of life for patients with chronic conditions.
- Multiple formulations: Available in oral, topical, and injectable forms, making it adaptable for different patient needs.
- Alternative to short-acting NSAIDs: Preferred for patients who need long-term management of inflammation without frequent dosing.
