Splint PC Tablet

Splint PC Tablet is used to treat joint pain and inflammation associated with various conditions. The detailed uses of Splint PC Tablet are as follows:

• Rheumatoid Arthritis: It helps reduce inflammation and joint damage caused by autoimmune activity.
• Osteoarthritis: It helps relieve joint pain, inflammation, and stiffness caused by cartilage wear and tear.

• Splint PC Tablet is used to relieve symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, such as stiffness, swelling, and joint pain.
• Splint PC 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.
