Piroxicam…...............................................................……20
mg
Indications:
Anti-reheumetoidal.
Description:
The mechanism of action of various types
of drugs for treating inflammation and
arthritis is reviewed. Three classes of
agents, the steroidal, the acidic
non-steroidal and the basic therapy
drugs, are discussed. The first two
types of drugs act rapidly on the
symptoms of inflammation, interfering at
various points in the inflammatory
response. The non-steroidal agents are
especially linked to a mechanism
involving, at least in part, the
prostaglandins. Piroxicam, a potent,
structurally unique member of the
non-steroidal class, is discussed in
some detail. The basic therapy drugs act
slowly, generally exhibit more severe
side effects and probably affect some
immunological aspects of rheumatoid
arthritis. The precise mechanisms of
action of this latter class of
structurally diverse drugs is generally
poorly understood at this time.
Dosage:
2 tablets daily or as per the
physician’s advice.
Presentations:
