Ugesic Gel 15 gm

Ugesic Gel is used to treat pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal disorders, including tenosynovitis, tendinitis, periarthritis, strains, sprains, and low back pain.

Ugesic Gel contains 'Piroxicam', which works by blocking the effects of a chemical messenger in the body called prostaglandins.

In some cases, Ugesic Gel may cause common side effects such as mild skin irritation, redness, and itching. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to speak to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Do not use Ugesic Gel if you are allergic to any of its contents. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning for pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Ugesic Gel is not recommended for use in children.

• Ugesic Gel works by blocking the effects of a chemical messenger called 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.
