About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Nexcam DT Tablet, containing 20mg of Piroxicam, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) indicated for the symptomatic treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and acute gout. Piroxicam, the active ingredient, exerts its anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2), thereby reducing prostaglandin synthesis. This results in decreased inflammation, pain relief, and reduction of joint swelling. The tablet formulation ensures easy administration and rapid onset of action. As with other NSAIDs, Nexcam DT Tablet should be used with caution in patients with a history of stomach ulcers or bleeding, as it may increase the risk of gastrointestinal ulcers and bleeding. Patients should adhere to the prescribed dosage and seek medical advice for any signs of adverse effects.

About Piroxicam
Piroxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain, inflammation, and stiffness associated with conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. It works by inhibiting the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which play a crucial role in the synthesis of prostaglandins that mediate pain and inflammation. Piroxicam is effective in reducing symptoms and improving joint function. In summary, Piroxicam is beneficial for managing pain and inflammation in various arthritic conditions.
How It Works
Piroxicam inhibits COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, leading to decreased production of prostaglandins, which are responsible for pain and inflammation.
