Pharmacodynamics

Tenoxicam, an antiinflammatory agent with analgesic and antipyretic properties, is used to treat osteoarthritis and control acute pain.

Mechanism of action

The antiinflammatory effects of tenoxicam may result from the inhibition of the enzyme cycooxygenase and the subsequent peripheral inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. As prostaglandins sensitize pain receptors, their inhibition accounts for the peripheral analgesic effects of tenoxicam. Antipyresis may occur by central action on the hypothalamus, resulting in peripheral dilation, increased cutaneous blood flow, and subsequent heat loss.

Interactions

Drug Interactions
This information should not be interpreted without the help of a healthcare provider. If you believe you are experiencing an interaction, contact a healthcare provider immediately. The absence of an interaction does not necessarily mean no interactions exist.
DrugInteraction
AbacavirTenoxicam may decrease the excretion rate of Abacavir which could result in a higher serum level.
AbataceptThe metabolism of Tenoxicam can be increased when combined with Abatacept.
AbciximabThe risk or severity of bleeding and hemorrhage can be increased when Tenoxicam is combined with Abciximab.
AbrocitinibThe metabolism of Abrocitinib can be decreased when combined with Tenoxicam.
AcamprosateThe excretion of Acamprosate can be decreased when combined with Tenoxicam.
Food Interactions
  • Take with food. Food may minimize stomach upset caused by tenoxicam.
