Sample Use Guides

The recommended dose is 30 mg once a day (osteoarthritis) and 60 mg once a day (rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis); the dose may be increased to a maximum of 60 mg (osteoarthritis) or 90 mg (rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis) once a day if needed. In case of acute pain conditions etoricoxib should be used only for the acute painful period. In gout the recommended dose is 120 mg once a day which should only be used for the acute painful period, limited to a maximum of 8 days. For the treatment of postoperative dental surgery pain the recommended dose is 90 mg once daily, limited to a maximum of 3 days treatment.
