Liometacen Injection 50Mg2ml

Liometacen Injection 50Mg2ml contains Indomethacin 50mg, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Made by Chiesi Pharmaceuticals Ltd, it is prescribed for gout attacks, arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and period pain. Pack size: 6 pcs.

Uses of Liometacen Injection 50Mg2ml

Liometacen Injection 50Mg2ml is used to relieve pain, swelling and stiffness in rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, and is a common choice for easing an acute attack of gout. It is also used for painful periods and other muscle and joint pain. Because it is one of the stronger NSAIDs, it is usually taken for the shortest time needed to control symptoms.

How Liometacen Injection 50Mg2ml works

Indomethacin blocks the COX enzymes that produce prostaglandins, the chemicals responsible for pain, swelling and fever at inflamed joints. It is a particularly potent prostaglandin blocker, which helps explain both its effectiveness in gout and its higher rate of side effects.
