Medicine information
Uses & overview
Etoricoxib and Paracetamol Tablets contain two active ingredients that help manage pain through different mechanisms. Etoricoxib belongs to the selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It reduces the production of substances involved in pain and inflammation. Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is an analgesic and antipyretic that helps relieve pain and reduce fever. A healthcare professional may consider this combination for selected painful conditions when both ingredients are appropriate. The suitability of treatment depends on the exact strength, the cause of the pain, other medical conditions, and medicines the patient is taking. This combination does not treat every cause of pain, and persistent or unexplained symptoms should be assessed by a healthcare professional. People looking for the price of Etoricoxib and Paracetamol tablets in India or planning to buy Etoricoxib and Paracetamol tablets online should check the product's exact ingredient strengths, pack size, manufacturer details, expiry date, and prescription requirements. Formulations can vary, so do not assume all products contain the same quantities of etoricoxib and paracetamol. Both ingredients require careful use. Etoricoxib may increase blood pressure, cause fluid retention, affect kidney function, and increase cardiovascular risks in some patients. Paracetamol can cause serious liver damage if taken in excessive quantities or combined with other medicines containing paracetamol. Avoid taking additional painkillers without checking their ingredients with a pharmacist or doctor. Before using this medicine, inform your healthcare professional if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, a history of stomach ulcers, kidney problems, liver disease, or regular alcohol consumption. Tell them about all prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, and supplements you take.
How to use
Take Etoricoxib and Paracetamol Tablets only according to your doctor's prescription and the product's approved instructions. Check the exact strength of both ingredients on the package before taking the medicine. Swallow the tablet with sufficient water. Do not crush or chew it unless the product instructions specifically allow this. Follow the label or your healthcare professional's advice about whether to take the tablet with or without food. Take each dose at the prescribed interval and do not take extra tablets if pain persists. Do not take other products containing paracetamol at the same time unless a healthcare professional confirms that the combined amount is safe. Avoid combining this medicine with other NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen, naproxen, or diclofenac, unless specifically advised by your doctor. Tell your doctor if you have liver disease, kidney problems, high blood pressure, heart disease, or a history of gastrointestinal bleeding. If you miss a dose, follow the prescription instructions or ask a pharmacist for advice. Never double the next dose. Seek medical advice if symptoms continue or worsen. Obtain urgent medical attention for chest pain, breathing difficulty, black stools, or signs of a serious allergic reaction. If you suspect that you have taken too much paracetamol, seek urgent medical help immediately, even if you feel well. Store the medicine according to the package instructions and keep it out of the reach of children.
