Overview

Felxicam 20mg Tablet contains Piroxicam 20mg and is presented as a tablet. It is supplied in pack sizes of 100s and 10s.

It is classified as a non-prescription medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Directions for Use

Felxicam 20mg Tablet should be taken exactly as prescribed by the doctor, usually once daily, swallowed whole with a full glass of water, and preferably taken with food to help reduce stomach irritation; the dose should never be adjusted or the tablet stopped abruptly without medical advice.

Dosage

The typical prescribed dose is 20mg once daily, though the doctor may adjust this based on the condition being treated, the patient’s response, and individual risk factors; treatment is generally kept to the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary due to piroxicam’s higher risk profile.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30 degrees Celsius in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, and keep out of reach of children.

Side Effects

  • Headache or dizziness

Contraindications

  • Known hypersensitivity to piroxicam, other NSAIDs, or aspirin
  • History of gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration, or perforation related to previous NSAID use
  • Active peptic ulcer disease
  • Severe heart failure, severe liver impairment, or severe kidney impairment
  • Third trimester of pregnancy
  • History of asthma, urticaria, or allergic-type reactions triggered by aspirin or other NSAIDs

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Other NSAIDs or aspirin, which increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding when combined
  • Anticoagulants such as warfarin, which increase bleeding risk
  • ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, or diuretics, which may increase the risk of kidney impairment when combined with piroxicam
  • Corticosteroids, which further increase gastrointestinal ulcer risk
  • Lithium and methotrexate, whose blood levels may be raised by piroxicam
  • Alcohol, which can increase the risk of stomach irritation and bleeding

Quick Tips

  • Never combine with other NSAIDs or aspirin unless specifically advised by your doctor
  • Report any new or worsening skin rash to your doctor immediately
  • Attend follow-up appointments so your doctor can monitor for gastrointestinal or kidney effects

Relevant Information

Because piroxicam is a more potent, longer-acting NSAID with a higher risk of gastrointestinal and skin-related complications than many newer alternatives, regular medical follow-up is important throughout treatment, and any signs of stomach pain, black stools, unusual bruising, or skin rash should prompt immediate medical attention rather than continued self-treatment.
