Lornoxicam 8 Mg 30 Tab

Description:

Lornoxicam 8 mg 30 tab is a prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) of the oxicam class used for the short-term treatment of pain and inflammation. Each film-coated tablet contains lornoxicam, which provides potent analgesic (pain-relieving), anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic (fever-reducing) effects. It is commonly used in musculoskeletal conditions, postoperative pain, and other acute painful disorders in adults under medical supervision.

Indications:

• Short-term treatment of acute pain of mild to moderate intensity (e.g. postoperative pain, dental pain, musculoskeletal pain).
• Relief of pain and inflammation associated with acute exacerbations of osteoarthritis and other inflammatory joint conditions, as prescribed by a physician.
• Management of pain related to soft tissue injuries such as sprains and strains.
• Symptomatic relief of inflammatory pain where an NSAID is indicated and suitable for the patient.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Lornoxicam – 8 mg per film-coated tablet.
• Excipients: film-coating and tablet core excipients (exact excipient list and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website; please refer to the package leaflet for full details).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as prescribed by a physician. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration.
• Typical adult dose for acute pain: 8 mg to 16 mg per day, usually divided into 2–3 doses (e.g. 8 mg every 12 hours), depending on severity of pain and medical advice. Exact regimen must be determined by the doctor.
• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew.
• Can be taken with or after food to help reduce the risk of gastrointestinal side effects.
• Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest possible duration to control symptoms.
• Not recommended for children and adolescents unless specifically directed by a specialist.
• If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides effective relief of mild to moderate acute pain, helping improve daily comfort and mobility.
• Reduces inflammation in joints and soft tissues, supporting better joint function and reduced swelling.
• Offers antipyretic action, helping to lower fever associated with inflammatory conditions when present.
• Rapid onset of analgesic effect compared to some traditional NSAIDs, aiding faster pain control under medical supervision.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to lornoxicam, other oxicams, or any NSAID (e.g. history of asthma, urticaria, or allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs).
• Contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcer, gastrointestinal bleeding, or history of recurrent peptic ulcer/bleeding.
• Contraindicated in severe heart failure, severe hepatic impairment, or severe renal impairment.
• Use with extreme caution in patients with a history of gastrointestinal disease (ulcer, bleeding, inflammatory bowel disease), cardiovascular disease, hypertension, kidney or liver impairment, or bleeding disorders.
• May increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration, and perforation, which can be fatal, especially in elderly or debilitated patients.
• May increase the risk of thrombotic cardiovascular events (such as myocardial infarction or stroke), particularly with high doses or prolonged use.
• Concomitant use with vitamin K antagonists (e.g. warfarin) increases bleeding risk; careful monitoring of coagulation is required.
• Concomitant use with ciclosporin may reduce kidney function and, in rare cases, lead to acute renal failure.
• Lornoxicam can increase the adverse effects and/or plasma levels of lithium, methotrexate, and digoxin; dose adjustments and monitoring may be necessary.
• May reduce the effect of diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and angiotensin II receptor antagonists, especially in patients with compromised renal function.
• Avoid use in late pregnancy (third trimester) due to risk of fetal and maternal complications (e.g. premature closure of ductus arteriosus, renal dysfunction, prolonged labor).
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, planning pregnancy, nursing, taking other medications, or have medical conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, kidney disease, liver disease, diabetes, or gastrointestinal disorders.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without medical supervision.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Do not use beyond the expiry date or if the blister pack is damaged.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, indigestion, diarrhea, constipation, headache, dizziness, and fatigue.
• Gastrointestinal side effects such as gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastrointestinal bleeding can occur, especially with higher doses or prolonged use.
• Less common side effects may include skin rash, itching, photosensitivity, edema, increased blood pressure, and changes in liver or kidney function tests.
• Serious but rare side effects include severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis, angioedema, bronchospasm), severe skin reactions, severe gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation, acute renal failure, and serious cardiovascular events.
• Stop taking the medicine and seek immediate medical attention if you experience signs of allergic reaction (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing), severe abdominal pain, black or bloody stools, vomiting blood, chest pain, sudden shortness of breath, or severe skin rash.
