How Nucoxia 60 Tab Works

Etoricoxib is a selective COX-2 inhibitor (NSAID) that reduces the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain, fever and inflammation. COX-2 selectivity helps reduce gastric irritation compared with non-selective NSAIDs, though risk is not eliminated.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.

Reduces joint pain and swelling
Improves mobility in arthritis
Provides relief in acute dental/musculoskeletal pain
Helps control inflammation in acute gout (short-term)
