Emicox-400 Celecoxib 400 mg Capsule (Targeted Selective COX-2 Anti-Inflammatory & Analgesic Care Sold per blister pack of 10 pieces) is an essential oral formulation prescribed for the acute and long-term relief of moderate-to-severe joint inflammation, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and acute musculoskeletal pain.

• Packaging & Quantity: Sold per blister pack of 10 pieces (1 sealed foil blister strip of 10 capsules). Each capsule delivers 400 mg of Celecoxib.

• Selective COX-2 Inhibition: Selectively inhibits cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme activity to block the synthesis of inflammatory prostaglandins while sparing COX-1, providing robust pain and swelling relief with a lower risk of serious gastrointestinal ulceration compared to traditional non-selective anti-inflammatory agents.

• Symptomatic relief and management of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis.

• Management of severe primary dysmenorrhea.

Directions for Use: Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water, with or without food (taking it with meals or milk can help prevent minor digestive discomfort):

• Dosage: Take strictly as prescribed by your physician. Celecoxib 400 mg is typically administered as an initial single dose or split across indicated regimens depending on clinical severity.

• Do not exceed the maximum daily dosage recommended by your doctor.

• Safety Precautions & Warnings: Contraindicated in patients with severe heart failure, active gastrointestinal bleeding or peptic ulcer disease, severe liver or kidney impairment, or a history of asthma, urticaria, or allergic reactions after taking salicylates, sulfonamides, or other anti-inflammatory medicines.
