Oxaprost (naproxen + misoprostol, regional combination)

Intoduction

Oxaprost Tablets (Diclofenac + ) are a prescription medicine designed to provide powerful relief from arthritis pain while protecting the stomach from ulcer damage. This combination pairs diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, with misoprostol, a synthetic prostaglandin that helps prevent NSAID-induced gastric and duodenal ulcers.

By combining pain relief with stomach protection, Oxaprost is especially useful for patients who require long-term NSAID therapy but face a high risk of gastrointestinal complications.

Key Uses of Oxaprost

• Relief from pain and inflammation in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis

• Prevention of NSAID-induced ulcers in patients at risk of stomach damage

• Supportive treatment where anti-inflammatory therapy and ulcer prevention are both required

Important Safety Information

• Pregnancy warning: Oxaprost is contraindicated in pregnancy because misoprostol may cause miscarriage, premature labor, or birth defects. Women of childbearing age must use reliable contraception while taking this medicine.

• Possible side effects: Common reactions include diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, and headache. Rare but serious effects include uterine rupture, high blood pressure, or allergic reactions. Always use under medical supervision.

Why Choose Oxaprost?

Oxaprost offers a dual benefit: effective arthritis pain relief plus protection against NSAID-related stomach ulcers, making it a trusted treatment option in rheumatology and gastroprotection.
