Take Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule as follows:

Swallow the capsule whole with water.
Take the medicine after meals to reduce the risk of stomach upset.
Follow the dosage and duration as prescribed by your doctor.
Do not stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor.

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule is taken orally.

Common side effects of Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule include:

Nausea
Indigestion
Headache
Dizziness
Diarrhea
Abdominal pain

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which are resolved by discontinuing the use of this medicine. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor. Here are some suggestions for managing common side effects:

Abdominal pain: Try taking this medicine with meals to reduce abdominal discomfort.
Nausea: You might find it helpful to take this medicine after eating.

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule contains the following component:

Polmacoxib (2 mg): It is a COX-2 inhibitor. It reduces discomfort by blocking the COX-2 enzyme, which affects inflammation and pain. It also minimises swelling and joint stiffness associated with osteoarthritis. Unlike traditional NSAIDs, it selectively inhibits COX-2, reducing the risk of gastrointestinal side effects.

Pregnancy

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule is not recommended for use during pregnancy. This is because the medication may pose risks to the developing fetus. Always consult your doctor before taking this medication if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.

Breastfeeding

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule can pass into breast milk, so caution is advised if you are breastfeeding. Consider consulting your doctor before starting this medicine.

Alcohol

Avoid consuming alcohol while taking this medicine. Alcohol can increase the risk of gastrointestinal side effects such as stomach irritation, ulcers, or bleeding. If you are unable to avoid alcohol completely, consult your doctor for advice on safe consumption.

Liver

Patients with liver should exercise caution when taking this medicine. These conditions may affect how the body processes and eliminates the medication, potentially leading to an increased risk of side effects. Consult your doctor to determine if this medication is safe for you and whether dosage adjustments are needed.

Kidney

If you have kidney issues, you should also be cautious when taking this medicine. It's a good idea to consult your doctor about these concerns before starting this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule may cause dizziness, drowsiness, or other side effects that can affect your ability to focus. Avoid driving, operating heavy machinery, or performing tasks that require alertness if you experience these symptoms.

Allergy

Do not use this medicine if you are allergic to Polmacoxib, other NSAIDs, or sulfonamides. Allergic reactions may include rashes, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face and throat. If you have a known allergy to these substances, inform your doctor before starting this medication.

Children

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule is not recommended for use in children, as its safety and effectiveness in this age group have not been established.

Older Patients

Older adults may be more susceptible to side effects such as gastrointestinal issues or kidney problems. It is essential for elderly patients to take this medicine only under the supervision of a healthcare provider.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule may interact with medications such as:

Diuretics and ACE Inhibitors such as Furosemide, and Hydrochlorothiazide: this medicine may reduce the efficacy of diuretics (water pills) and ACE inhibitors, which are medications commonly used to manage high blood pressure and heart failure.
Anticoagulants such as Warfarin: Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule may increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulants (blood thinners). This can lead to gastrointestinal bleeding or other bleeding complications.
Corticosteroids such as Prednisone: Using Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule alongside corticosteroids can heighten the risk of gastrointestinal issues such as ulcers or bleeding.
Antimetabolites such as Methotrexate: Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule may increase the toxicity of methotrexate, a medication used for treating autoimmune diseases and some cancers. This can lead to side effects such as kidney damage or reduced blood cell production.

Drug-Food Interactions

Take after meals to reduce gastrointestinal irritation.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule may interact with diseases such as:

Gastrointestinal Ulcers or Bleeding: Patients with a history of stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding are at an increased risk of experiencing these complications when taking this medicine.
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Pumacoxib 2mg Capsule can cause fluid retention and raise blood pressure, potentially worsening hypertension.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of this medicine should be taken as your doctor prescribes. The dosage may change based on individual factors such as age, the condition's severity, and treatment response.

Over Dose

If you accidentally take more than the prescribed dose, you may experience nausea, dizziness, or gastrointestinal discomfort. Contact your doctor or seek medical help immediately.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. Do not double your dose to make up for the missed one.

Store at room temperature (25°C) away from light and moisture.
Keep out of reach of children.
Do not use after the expiry date.

Maintain a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables to support joint health.
Engage in low-impact exercises like walking or swimming to strengthen joints and improve mobility.
Avoid excessive weight gain, as it can put additional stress on weight-bearing joints.
