Polmacoxib 2 mg + Paracetamol 325 mg Tablets

Principal uses of Polmacoxib and Paracetamol are primarily in a therapy to relieve pain and to reduce inflammation.

Very effective in treating the condition of Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

The other commonly used medicine is paracetamol, which helps to bring down pain from mild to moderate, and helps to bring down fever. Less anti-inflammatory than anti-inflammatory drugs and, as such may be suggested for patients who may not be able to tolerate inflammation/pain.

The patient who is taking this combination should take the medication as prescribed by his healthcare practitioner for optimal treatment and monitoring of the side effects. It helps treat pain related to musculoskeletal diseases and recovery after surgery.
