Overview

Roxim 20mg Capsule contains Piroxicam 20mg and is available as a capsule. It is classified as a prescription medicine and may only be obtained with a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner.

Only product, safety and handling information is published here. Anything beyond that is explained to you directly by your doctor or pharmacist as part of your consultation.

DoctorOnCall is a licensed online pharmacy. Orders for Roxim 20mg Capsule are processed only after a doctor has assessed your suitability and issued a prescription, and every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is sent out.

Directions for Use

Take Roxim 20mg Capsule with food or milk to reduce the chance of stomach upset, and swallow the capsule whole with a full glass of water. Do not lie down for at least 10 minutes after taking it. Use for the shortest period that controls your symptoms, and do not exceed the dose or duration advised by your doctor.

Dosage

The usual dose of Roxim 20mg Capsule is 20mg once daily, taken with food to reduce stomach upset. Because piroxicam carries a higher risk of stomach ulcers and bleeding than many other NSAIDs, your doctor will generally prescribe it at the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to control your symptoms.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.

Side Effects

Contraindications

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Aspirin and other NSAIDs increase the risk of stomach ulcers and bleeding when combined
  • Warfarin and other anticoagulants: bleeding risk is increased with concurrent use
  • ACE inhibitors or diuretics: piroxicam may reduce their blood-pressure-lowering effect and affect kidney function
  • Corticosteroids further increase the risk of gastrointestinal ulceration when combined

Quick Tips

  • Always take with food to reduce stomach irritation
  • Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest time needed to control your symptoms
  • Avoid combining with other NSAIDs or aspirin unless specifically advised by your doctor
  • Report black stools, vomiting blood, or persistent stomach pain to your doctor immediately
