About
Proxym ER Tab is an extended-release formulation of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) designed to provide prolonged relief from pain and inflammation. It works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which are responsible for the synthesis of prostaglandins, key mediators of inflammation, pain, and fever. This sustained-release mechanism allows for less frequent dosing, typically once daily, improving patient compliance and maintaining consistent therapeutic levels over an extended period. It is commonly prescribed for chronic inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, where continuous pain management and inflammation reduction are crucial for improving quality of life and functional mobility. The extended-release nature helps to minimize fluctuations in drug concentration, offering more stable symptom control throughout the day and night.
