Composition:-
Paracetamol 325 + Etoricoxib 60mg
Uses:-
This combination medication is used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with various conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and other musculoskeletal disorders. Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is a common pain reliever and fever reducer that works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain, which are responsible for transmitting pain signals. Etoricoxib belongs to a class of medications called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and works by blocking the action of certain enzymes in the body that cause inflammation and pain. Together, these two medications provide effective relief from pain, swelling, and stiffness, allowing individuals to better manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
