  • Description

    Piroxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that functions as an analgesic and antipyretic. It achieves these effects by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, which lowers their levels in the body and brings about pain relief and a reduction in fever. Piroxicam Beta Cyclodextrin is a modified version of Piroxicam in which the active ingredient is complexed with Beta Cyclodextrin. The purpose of this complex is to enhance the drug's solubility and bioavailability, thereby making it more easily dissolvable and absorbable by the body. It is typically used to relieve pain and reduce inflammation associated with conditions like arthritis, fever, and acute musculoskeletal injuries.
