Scientific Evidence:

Meloxicam, the active ingredient in Revmalgyn suppositories, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exerts its pharmacological effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes, thereby reducing the production of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins. Studies have demonstrated the efficacy of meloxicam in the management of pain and inflammation associated with various arthritic conditions.

Additional Information:

It is important to note that NSAIDs, including meloxicam, may increase the risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and stroke, which can be fatal. Patients with a history of cardiovascular disease or risk factors should use meloxicam with caution and under close medical supervision.

Clinical trials have shown that rectal administration of meloxicam can provide rapid and effective pain relief in patients who may have difficulty swallowing oral medications or experience gastrointestinal side effects with oral NSAIDs.
