Nausea
Vomiting
Indigestion
Diarrhoea or constipation
Headache

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Etos-P Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here’s how to manage two common side effects:

Dyspepsia: Take a nutritious diet and stay away from junk food.
Insomnia: Follow the sleep hygiene practices recommended by your doctor.

Etos-P Tablet consists of two active ingredients:

Etoricoxib (60 mg): This ingredient belongs to the NSAID class of medicines known as selective COX-2 inhibitors. It manages inflammation and pain by blocking an enzyme called COX-2 in your body. This enzyme is responsible for producing substances called prostaglandins which cause inflammation and pain.
Paracetamol/Acetaminophen (325 mg): This component works as an analgesic and antipyretic. It is thought to manage pain by increasing your body's threshold for pain. Additionally, it reduces fever by acting on the heat-regulating centre of your brain.

The combination of these two components offers a more effective control of pain and inflammation at lower doses compared to when either medicine is used alone.
