Description
Acabel 8mg/2ml Injection contains Lornoxicam, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to treat moderate to severe pain and inflammation associated with conditions like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It works by reducing inflammation and alleviating pain in the joints, improving mobility and reducing discomfort. This injectable form of Lornoxicam is often prescribed when oral NSAIDs are not suitable or when more immediate relief is needed.
Functions
The primary function of Acabel 8mg/2ml is to provide relief from pain and inflammation caused by musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Lornoxicam, the active ingredient, helps to inhibit the enzymes that trigger inflammation and pain in the body. This reduces swelling in the joints, improves joint function, and alleviates symptoms such as stiffness and tenderness, providing relief to patients with chronic inflammatory conditions.
Precautions
Before using Acabel Injection, patients should inform their healthcare provider of any underlying medical conditions, especially heart disease, kidney or liver disorders, or gastrointestinal issues such as ulcers. Since Lornoxicam belongs to the NSAID class of drugs, it should be used with caution in individuals with a history of aspirin allergies or stomach ulcers. Additionally, if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using this medication. Regular monitoring is recommended if you have pre-existing conditions such as high blood pressure or heart disease.
Side Effects
Like other NSAIDs, Acabel 8mg/2ml Inj may cause side effects. The most common side effects include stomach pain, diarrhea, and nausea. Some patients may also experience dizziness, headaches, or mild gastrointestinal discomfort. In rare cases, serious side effects such as ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, or liver toxicity may occur. If any unusual symptoms develop, or if side effects worsen, it is essential to seek medical advice promptly.
Cautions
Acabel Inj should be used with caution in patients with cardiovascular conditions, as it may cause fluid retention and elevate blood pressure. It is also advised to avoid alcohol while using this medication, as it may increase the risk of stomach irritation or bleeding. If you are undergoing any surgery, inform your doctor that you are taking this medication, as it can interfere with blood clotting. Additionally, avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how this medication affects you, as it may cause dizziness or drowsiness. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider to minimize the risk of side effects.
