FELDENE GEL (PIROXICAM)
Feldene Gel Description
Feldene Gel is a prescription strength, non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is applied topically to treat pain, inflammation, and stiffness caused by joint and muscle conditions or injuries. This includes osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, tennis elbow, and strains or sprains. As a pain reliever and fever reducer, Feldene Gel or generic Piroxicam can help have you up and mobile again in no time. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.
Reduce Symptoms of Joint or Muscle Pain with Feldene Gel
Apply Feldene Gel as directed to the affected area and massage in until completely absorbed. Now you can relax while Piroxicam goes to work by inhibiting the production of inflammatory chemicals, including prostaglandins that your immune response signals when there is an injury. When an injury occurs or is suspected, your blood vessels dilate to provide an increased blood flow to the injured site. This promotes swelling from the accumulation of fluids which can cause the pain as nerve endings can become compressed. Inflammation is your body’s way of healing, but it can also cause more inflammation. By reducing the amount of inflammatory chemicals, you will still heal and find comfort from pain relief.
Conditions Treated by Feldene Gel
Painful joints, stiffness, and swelling are the top symptoms of arthritis and can make it difficult for you to perform daily tasks, sleep well, drive, and walk. Osteoarthritis is caused from normal wear and tear on your joints over the years. Maintaining a healthy weight helps with joint pain and if exercising is too painful, try swimming or working out in the pool as you’re able to move more freely without putting weight on your knees, hips, or back. There is no cure for osteoarthritis, but Feldene Gel can help relieve the pain and inflammation in your joints so you are able to function better.
Before Feldene Gel is Prescribed
If you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or are breast feeding, ask your doctor if Feldene Gel is safe to apply. Explain other medical conditions or allergies to your doctor and list any OTC or Rx drugs you currently take or use, including dietary, herbal, or vitamin supplements so your doctor can determine if Feldene Gel is right for your situation.
Feldene Gel Precautions and Recommendations
Be certain you wash your hands before and after applying Feldene Gel, unless your hands are being treated. Do not cover, wrap, or bandage the treated area as this can cause an increased risk for side effects. You should not share Feldene Gel with others, even if they are displaying the same symptoms you have. Your doctor may recommend taking an oral NSAID along with Feldene Gel if your pain and inflammation is extensive.
Possible Side Effects of Feldene Gel
Itchiness
Redness at treatment site
