Product Details

Atoxan 30mg Tablets contain Etoricoxib, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that selectively inhibits COX-2 enzymes. This action helps to reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling associated with various conditions, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and gout. Etoricoxib works by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammation and pain, providing effective relief with a lower risk of gastrointestinal side effects compared to traditional NSAIDs.

Purpose

The primary purposes of Atoxan 30mg Tablets include:

• Osteoarthritis: Provides relief from pain, swelling, and stiffness associated with osteoarthritis, improving joint mobility and quality of life.
• Rheumatoid Arthritis: Reduces joint pain, inflammation, and stiffness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, helping to manage the chronic symptoms of this autoimmune condition.
• Ankylosing Spondylitis: Helps alleviate pain and stiffness in the spine caused by ankylosing spondylitis, an inflammatory condition affecting the spine and large joints.
• Gout: Offers effective relief from acute gout attacks by reducing pain and inflammation in the affected joints.

Warnings

Atoxan 30mg Tablets should be used with caution in individuals with a history of gastrointestinal disorders (such as ulcers), cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is essential to follow your healthcare provider's instructions and not exceed the recommended dosage or duration of treatment. This medication is not recommended during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, as it may harm the unborn baby. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.

Adverse Effects

Common side effects of Atoxan 30mg Tablets may include stomach upset or pain, nausea, dizziness, headache, and fluid retention (swelling of the legs, ankles, or feet). While these side effects are generally mild, more serious side effects may occur, including gastrointestinal bleeding, heart problems, allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling), and liver or kidney problems. If you experience any severe or unusual symptoms, seek immediate medical attention.

Cautions

Before using Atoxan 30mg Tablets, inform your healthcare provider about all other medications you are taking, including other NSAIDs, blood-thinning medications (such as warfarin), and certain antidepressants, to avoid potential interactions. Do not consume alcohol while taking this medication, as it may increase the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. Regular monitoring by your healthcare provider may be necessary, especially for individuals with pre-existing health conditions or those taking other medications. Store Atoxan 30mg Tablets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
