Etoricoxib is a medication that serves as a selective inhibitor of COX-2, an enzyme that plays a role in inflammatory processes and pain perception. Unlike common NSAIDs, etoricoxib is selective in its action, meaning it spares the COX-1 enzyme that maintains gastric mucosal protection and homeostasis. This selectivity reduces the risk of issues such as gastric ulcers and bleeding. The usual dosage for adults is one 60mg tablet per day, which can be taken either all at once or divided into two doses with at least a 6-hour gap between them. It's important not to exceed the recommended 60mg daily dosage. Etoricoxib is commonly used to help manage and treat several inflammatory conditions like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as acute and chronic pain. It is essential to carefully follow the dosage and duration instructions given by your medical practitioner, and to report any adverse reactions experienced while taking etoricoxib.
