Winzoxib 120 Mg 7 Tablets

Description:

Winzoxib 120 mg 7 tablets is a prescription anti-inflammatory pain relief medicine containing etoricoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor (coxib). It is used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with various musculoskeletal and joint disorders such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, acute gout, and acute pain conditions. Winzoxib 120 mg is formulated as film-coated tablets for oral use and is intended for adults under medical supervision.

Indications:

• Treatment of pain and inflammation in osteoarthritis.
• Treatment of rheumatoid arthritis to reduce joint pain, swelling, and stiffness.
• Management of psoriatic arthritis–related pain and inflammation.
• Treatment of ankylosing spondylitis and other chronic inflammatory spinal conditions.
• Relief of chronic low back pain of inflammatory origin, as prescribed by a physician.
• Short-term treatment of acute pain (such as musculoskeletal pain, post-traumatic pain, or post-operative pain) as directed by a doctor.
• Treatment of acute gouty arthritis to relieve intense joint pain, swelling, and redness.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Etoricoxib – 120 mg per film-coated tablet.
• Other tablet excipients (fillers, binders, coating agents, etc.) – exact composition and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website. Please refer to the official package leaflet for the full excipient list.

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 gout: etoricoxib 120 mg once daily for the shortest possible duration, usually up to a few days, as directed by the doctor. Exact regimen must be individualized by the prescriber.
• For chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or chronic low back pain, lower daily doses (such as 30–90 mg) are usually recommended; the 120 mg strength is generally reserved for acute pain or acute gout. Follow your doctor’s specific instructions.
• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew.
• Can be taken with or without food. Taking it at the same time each day helps maintain consistent effect.
• Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest possible duration to reduce the risk of side effects, especially cardiovascular and gastrointestinal risks.
• If you miss a dose, 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.
• Not recommended for children and adolescents unless specifically prescribed by a specialist.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides potent pain relief in acute gout attacks and other acute pain conditions.
• Reduces inflammation, swelling, and stiffness in joints affected by arthritis and spondylitis.
• Improves mobility and functional capacity in patients with chronic inflammatory joint diseases.
• Selective COX-2 inhibition offers targeted anti-inflammatory action while aiming to reduce gastrointestinal side effects compared with some traditional NSAIDs (non-selective COX inhibitors), when used appropriately.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to etoricoxib or any component of the formulation.
• Do not use in patients with active peptic ulcer, gastrointestinal bleeding, severe liver impairment, severe renal impairment, or inflammatory bowel disease unless strictly supervised by a specialist.
• Contraindicated in patients with established ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease (such as stroke), or peripheral arterial disease, or in those with uncontrolled hypertension.
• Use with caution in patients with risk factors for cardiovascular events (such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking) and in elderly patients.
• May cause fluid retention and edema; use cautiously in patients with heart failure or other conditions predisposing to fluid overload.
• May increase the risk of serious gastrointestinal events (bleeding, ulceration, perforation), particularly with prolonged use, high dose, or in patients with a history of ulcers or concomitant use of other NSAIDs, corticosteroids, or anticoagulants.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing. Etoricoxib is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless the potential benefit justifies the potential risk.
• Inform your doctor about all other medications you are taking, especially anticoagulants, antiplatelets, diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, other NSAIDs, corticosteroids, and certain antidepressants.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without medical supervision.
