Peurox 20mg Tablet DT

Peurox 20mg Tablet DT is used to relieve symptoms like pain, inflammation, and joint stiffness associated with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease caused by the breakdown of cartilage (a protective covering) and the underlying bone.

Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, speak to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
