Arcoxia 120Mg 7Tab

Arcoxia is a medication that belongs to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and is primarily used to relieve pain and inflammation. This medication is used to treat conditions such as arthritis, back pain, and headaches. It effectively reduces pain and inflammation.

Arcoxia works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which decreases the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain and inflammation. This effect helps alleviate symptoms associated with inflammation such as swelling and pain. Arcoxia is considered an effective option for patients who need relief from chronic or acute pain without affecting the stomach lining as some other medications do.
