Pfizer - Dynastat inj. powder flacon 40mg + solvens 2ml
What is Dynastat™ (parecoxib sodium) and what is it used for?
Dynastat is used for the short-term treatment of pain in adults after an operation. The active substance in Dynastat, parecoxib, is a ‘prodrug’ of valdecoxib. This means that it is converted to valdecoxib in the body. Valdecoxib is a non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drug (NSAID) that belongs to the group of medicines called COX-2 inhibitors (this is short for cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibitors). Pain and swelling are sometimes caused by substances in the body called prostaglandins. Dynastat works by lowering the amount of these prostaglandins.
As with other medicines in the same group as Dynastat, the risk of heart and blood-vessel problems may increase with higher doses and longer durations of Dynastat treatment. The shortest duration possible and the lowest effective dose of Dynastat should be used.
