Selcaxen 40 mg
Selcaxen 40 mg is a prescription medication formulated to provide effective and targeted relief from pain and inflammation associated with a range of musculoskeletal and joint conditions. It contains Etoricoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, and is part of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) class.
This modern anti-inflammatory solution is specially designed to offer strong analgesic and anti-inflammatory benefits with a lower risk of gastrointestinal side effects compared to traditional NSAIDs.
π¬ How Selcaxen 40 mg Works:
Etoricoxib in Selcaxen works by selectively inhibiting the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme, which is primarily responsible for the synthesis of inflammatory prostaglandins. Unlike non-selective NSAIDs, it spares the COX-1 enzyme, which protects the stomach lining, reducing the risk of ulcers and GI bleeding.
