Pharmacology
Within and significantly above the clinical dose range, etoricoxib is a potent, orally active cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) specific inhibitor. Cyclooxygenase has two isoforms: cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) (COX-2). COX-1 is responsible for normal physiologic functions mediated by prostaglandins, such as gastric cytoprotection and platelet aggregation.
Dosage & Administration

- Osteoarthritis: The recommended dose is 30 mg once daily. In some patients with insufficient relief from symptoms, an increased dose of 60 mg once daily may increase efficacy.
- Rheumatoid arthritis: The recommended dose is 90 mg once daily.
- Ankylosing spondylitis: The recommended dose is 90 mg once daily.
- Acute gouty arthritis: The recommended dose is 120 mg once daily. In clinical trials for acute gouty arthritis, Etoricoxib was given for 8 days.
- Postoperative dental surgery pain: The recommended dose is 90 mg once daily, limited to a maximum of 3 days. Some patients may require additional analgesia after surgery.
