Cazanat 40mg Tablet is a medication containing the active ingredient Etoricoxib. It belongs to a class of drugs known as selective COX-2 inhibitors, which work by reducing the production of prostaglandins in the body. Prostaglandins are substances that contribute to inflammation, pain, and fever. By selectively inhibiting COX-2 enzymes, Etoricoxib effectively reduces these symptoms with a potentially lower risk of gastrointestinal side effects compared to non-selective NSAIDs.
Cazanat 40mg Tablet is primarily indicated for the symptomatic relief of pain and inflammation in various conditions, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and acute gouty arthritis. It is also used for the short-term treatment of moderate pain associated with dental surgery.

However, the dosage and duration of treatment should be determined by a healthcare professional based on the individual’s condition and response to therapy. It is important to take the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to control symptoms.

Serious side effects, though rare, can occur and include cardiovascular events, allergic reactions, and liver problems.
