About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Feldex Tablet contains Piroxicam 20mg, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with various musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Piroxicam works by inhibiting the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which play a key role in the synthesis of prostaglandins responsible for inflammation, pain, and fever. Feldex is effective in reducing joint swelling, stiffness, and discomfort, thereby improving mobility and quality of life in patients suffering from chronic inflammatory conditions. It is typically prescribed for short-term or long-term management depending on the severity of symptoms and the patient’s response to treatment. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, abdominal pain, and dyspepsia, so it is recommended to take the tablet with food to minimize these effects. Patients with a history of peptic ulcers, cardiovascular disease, or kidney impairment should use Feldex with caution and under medical supervision. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and not to exceed the recommended duration of therapy to avoid potential adverse effects. Feldex Tablet should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and kept out of reach of children.
