Nucoxia SP Tablet

Nucoxia SP Tablet belongs to the class of drugs known as pain killer/ 'non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug' (NSAID). Nucoxia SP Tablet is used to provide pain relief in various conditions including post-traumatic pain, low back pain, cervical pain, spondylitis (inflammation in spinal bones), osteoarthritis (joint pain and stiffness), rheumatoid arthritis (joint pain and damage throughout the body), migraine, etc. Pain can be temporary (acute) or prolonged period (chronic) in nature. Acute pain is for a short time caused by damage to the tissues of the muscle, bone or organs. Chronic pain lasts for long time caused due to nerve damage, osteoarthritis, dental pain, etc., due to damage to the tooth nerve, infection, decay, extraction or injury. 

Nucoxia SP Tablet contains two medicines namely etoricoxib and serratiopeptidase. Nucoxia SP Tablet contains ‘etoricoxib’ which works by blocking the release of a chemical messenger called prostaglandin, produced by COX-2, which is responsible for pain, swelling and inflammation. Serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme which helps in the breakdown of insoluble protein (fibrin) a by-product of blood clot into smaller units. It also causes thinning of the fluids in the body as a result of injury, thereby making fluid drainage smoother in the swollen tissue. Together Nucoxia SP Tablet is effective for relieving pain.
