Etoricoxib 90 mg
Relief of pain and inflammation in osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis; acute musculoskeletal pain (as prescribed).
Etoricoxib is a selective COX-2 inhibitor (NSAID). It reduces the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain and inflammation while having less effect on COX-1 compared with non-selective NSAIDs.
Oral tablet. Take exactly as prescribed, preferably at the same time each day, with or without food (food may delay onset). Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration; swallow with water and do not crush/chew unless advised.
