Scientific Evidence

Dexibuprofen, the active ingredient in Zotec-200, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits both analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase, thereby reducing the production of prostaglandins which are responsible for pain and inflammation.

Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of dexibuprofen in providing pain relief comparable to traditional ibuprofen but with potentially fewer gastrointestinal side effects due to its specific enantiomeric structure.

Additional Information

Zotec-200 coated tablets offer a convenient and effective option for managing various types of pain. It is important to follow the recommended dosage and not exceed the maximum daily dose to avoid adverse effects.

Consult your healthcare provider before using Zotec-200, especially if you have underlying medical conditions or are taking other medications to prevent potential drug interactions.
