About Pirotas SL Orange Flavour Tablet 10's
Pirotas SL Orange Flavour Tablet 10's belongs to the group of medications known as NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) used to relieve symptoms like pain, inflammation and joint stiffness associated with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. It is also used to treat post-operative dental pain. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering (cartilage). Rheumatoid arthritis is an auto-immune disease (the body's immune system attacks its tissue), leading to joint pain and damage.

Prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling.
