Product Overview
Nucoxia SP is a medication containing the active ingredients Etoricoxib (60mg) and Serratiopeptidase (10mg). It is available in tablet form. Etoricoxib belongs to a class of medications called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and works by reducing pain and inflammation. Serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme that helps to decrease swelling and improve tissue healing. Together, these ingredients provide relief from pain and inflammation associated with various conditions.
Uses
Nucoxia SP is commonly used to relieve pain and inflammation caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and gout. It is also used to manage acute pain, such as muscle sprains, strains, and postoperative pain. Additionally, Serratiopeptidase in Nucoxia SP aids in the breakdown of proteins, facilitating the resolution of inflammation and promoting tissue repair.
How to Use
Take Nucoxia SP tablets orally with a full glass of water, preferably with food to reduce the risk of stomach upset. Swallow the tablet whole; do not crush, chew, or break it. Follow your doctor’s instructions regarding the dosage and duration of treatment. Do not exceed the recommended dose or use it for longer than prescribed without consulting your doctor.
How it Works
Etoricoxib in Nucoxia SP works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which is involved in the production of prostaglandins that cause pain and inflammation. By blocking COX-2, Etoricoxib reduces the production of prostaglandins, thereby alleviating pain and inflammation. Serratiopeptidase, on the other hand, acts as an anti-inflammatory agent by breaking down inflammatory proteins and promoting tissue healing.
Dosage and Administration
The dosage of Nucoxia SP may vary depending on the severity of the condition being treated and the individual patient’s response to therapy. It is typically taken once daily, with or without food. The recommended dose for adults is usually one tablet per day. However, your doctor may adjust the dosage based on your medical condition and response to treatment. It is important to take Nucoxia SP exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
