Uses of Esgipyrin SP Tablet

What is it prescribed for?
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a condition when your body’s immune system attacks the lining of your small joints. It may also affect other parts of your body. Esgipyrin SP Tablet is used to relieve swelling and pain in the joints due to RA.
Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis. In OA, the flexible tissue at the ends of the bones wears down leading to friction. This causes pain, stiffness, and swelling. Esgipyrin SP Tablet is used to relieve pain and stiffness due to OA.
Ankylosing Spondylitis
Ankylosing Spondylitis is a kind of arthritis that mainly affects the spine causing the small bones of your spinal cord to fuse together. This leads to inflammation, pain and deformity, and a decrease in the flexibility of your spine. Esgipyrin SP Tablet is used to relieve stiffness and pain (especially in the lower back, hip, and pelvis) associated with ankylosing spondylitis.
Mild to Moderate pain
Esgipyrin SP Tablet is used to relieve pain and swelling in conditions like back pain, earache, throat pain, toothache, abdominal pain during periods, and muscle injury.
