About MICROCID 75MG TABLET

MICROCID 75MG TABLET belongs to the group of pain killers known as NSAID's (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) used to relieve symptoms caused by osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and rheumatoid arthritis such as stiffness, swelling and joint pain. MICROCID 75MG TABLET is also used to treat acute gouty arthritis, musculoskeletal pain, lower back pain, period pain, pain following joint and bone surgery.

MICROCID 75MG TABLET works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in your body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical 'prostaglandins' (PG). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.

You are advised to take MICROCID 75MG TABLET for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as headache, dizziness, diarrhoea, vomiting, and constipation.

MICROCID 75MG TABLET causes drowsiness and dizziness, so drive with caution. MICROCID 75MG TABLET should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with MICROCID 75MG TABLET as it could lead to increased drowsiness and dizziness; it might also increase the risk of stomach bleeding.
