Dolonex DT 20 Tablet

Drug | Tablet

Relief of pain and inflammation in osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and other musculoskeletal pain conditions.

Piroxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis. This lowers inflammation, pain, and swelling.

Take as prescribed, usually once daily. Disperse the tablet in a small amount of water and drink immediately, preferably after food to reduce stomach upset. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration.

Acidity, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, headache, edema
