Clinical Overview
Etoricoxib (60mg) and Thiocolchicoside (4mg) Tablets combines a highly selective COX-2 inhibitor with a non-sedating muscle relaxant. Etoricoxib blocks inflammatory prostaglandins with >100-fold selectivity over COX-1, causing significantly less gastrointestinal ulceration than non-selective NSAIDs, while thiocolchicoside eliminates painful muscle spasms via central GABA-A/glycine receptor antagonism. Indicated for acute low back pain, acute torticollis, cervical radiculopathy, and severe muscular spasms associated with spinal osteoarthritis.
