Introduction
Prime Piroxicam 10mg Capsule is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), with piroxicam as its active ingredient, used for the relief of pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. If you're starting this medication, you're probably wondering how it fits into your pain management plan β it's taken orally, once daily or in divided doses, with food to help reduce stomach irritation, and because piroxicam stays in the body longer than many other NSAIDs, it may take up to a week or two of consistent use before you notice its full effect. Some people experience stomach discomfort, indigestion, dizziness, or headache, and this medication carries a notably higher risk of stomach-related side effects and serious skin reactions compared to some other NSAIDs, which is why regulatory guidance in several countries recommends it only be used when other NSAIDs haven't been effective, at the lowest dose and for the shortest time possible. Because of these considerations, it's worth having a thorough discussion with your doctor about whether this is the right choice for you, particularly if you're older or have any history of stomach, heart, kidney, or skin problems.
Dosage
The typical adult dose is 20mg once daily, or, if preferred, 10mg taken twice daily, for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. In elderly patients, dosing is generally started at the low end of this range if the anticipated benefit outweighs the risks, and periodic medical review is recommended with any long-term use.
Side Effects
- Stomach discomfort or indigestion
- Nausea
- Dizziness
- Headache
- Diarrhoea or constipation
- Fluid retention or mild swelling (uncommon)
- Elevated liver enzymes (uncommon, identified through blood tests)
- Gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration, or perforation (can occur at any time, without warning, and can be fatal)
- Serious skin reactions, such as exfoliative dermatitis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, or toxic epidermal necrolysis (rare, but can be fatal; stop the medication immediately at the first sign of rash)
- Anaphylactic reactions, even without prior known sensitivity to piroxicam (rare, seek emergency care)

Drug & Food Interactions
Piroxicam may increase the effect of blood thinners like warfarin, and combining it with other NSAIDs, aspirin, corticosteroids, or certain blood pressure medications like ACE inhibitors or ARBs can increase the risk of stomach bleeding or reduced kidney function. Alcohol should be avoided, given the increased risk of stomach irritation and bleeding, and it's essential to inform your doctor or pharmacist about all other medications you're taking.
