Doloxicam DT Tablet contains piroxicam (20 mg) which has a particular way of working in your body:

• Prostaglandin Production Inhibition: Piroxicam works by reducing the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in your body that cause inflammation, pain, and fever.

• Cyclooxygenase Enzymes Inhibition: Specifically, piroxicam acts by blocking enzymes called cyclooxygenase COX 1 and COX 2. These enzymes are crucial for making prostaglandins. By inhibiting these enzymes, piroxicam can effectively help manage symptoms of inflammation and pain.

• Anti-inflammatory Effect: The medicine's effect on reducing swelling or inflammation is primarily due to its inhibition of COX2 enzyme.

Remember that understanding how a medicine works is part of informed healthcare decision-making. However, always consult your doctor for advice tailored to your specific health condition.
