Medicinal Benefits:

Ultranex Tablet belongs to the group of painkillers known as NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). Ultranex Tablet is used to relieve symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, such as stiffness, swelling, and joint pain. Ultranex Tablet contains Piroxicam, which works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body, known as cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, that produce another chemical, prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, fewer prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.
