Mexicam 7.5mg
Tablet
What is Mexicam?
It contains meloxicam which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve various types of pain, including pain caused by musculoskeletal conditions, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. With a longer half-life than most other NSAIDs, it is a favorable option for those who require once-daily dosing.
Meloxicam is available in oral, transdermal, and intravenous formulations. It is a preferential COX-2 inhibitor, purportedly reducing the risk of adverse gastrointestinal tract effects.
Indications:
Meloxicam is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of arthritis and osteoarthritis.
In addition, it is indicated for the periarticular and polyarticular course of Juvenile
Rheumatoid Arthritis (JRA) in patients aged 2 years old or above.
Off-label uses include the treatment of dental or post-surgical pain. In addition to the
above, meloxicam has also been studied in the treatment of neuropathic pain.
