Etoricoxib 90 mg tablets are primarily used to relieve pain, stiffness, and swelling (inflammation) caused by specific conditions in adults and adolescents 16 years of age and older.
This medication is a selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and a COX-2 inhibitor, meaning it targets the chemicals responsible for pain and inflammation with a potentially lower risk of stomach problems compared to some other NSAIDs.
Specific uses for the 90 mg dosage include:
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA): To manage ongoing pain and inflammation in the joints.
Ankylosing spondylitis: To relieve pain and stiffness in the spine and large joints.
Postoperative dental surgery pain: For short-term management of moderate pain, typically for a maximum of 3 days.
Acute gouty arthritis: The recommended dose for acute gout is 120 mg, but 90 mg may be used if prescribed by a doctor for up to 8 days.
Chronic lower back pain: Can also be used for relief from chronic musculoskeletal pain.
Important Considerations:
The 90 mg dose is generally not the initial dose for conditions like osteoarthritis; lower doses (30 mg or 60 mg) are usually prescribed first.
Etoricoxib should be used at the lowest effective dose and for the shortest possible duration due to potential cardiovascular risks (such as increased blood pressure, heart attack, or stroke).
The medication is available as tablets and can be taken with or without food.
Patients with a history of heart disease, uncontrolled high blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, or stomach ulcers should use this medication with caution and under medical supervision.
Always follow your doctor's advice regarding dosage and duration of treatment. You can find more detailed information in the patient information leaflet from sources like the eMC (Electronic Medicines Compendium).
