What is Piroxicam Injection?

Piroxicam Injection, marketed as Pecam, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for the relief of pain and inflammation. It is commonly prescribed in acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions.

Piroxicam works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which are responsible for the production of prostaglandins—chemicals that cause pain, inflammation, and swelling in the body. Reducing these mediators, it provides effective relief.

Indications Pecam Injection

Pecam 40 mg is indicated for conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, acute gout, postoperative pain, and musculoskeletal injuries. It is especially useful when rapid pain relief is required.
