Mode of Action

Tenoxicam is a potent inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis by blocking the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase. Additional actions contributing to its anti-inflammatory effect includes inhibition of leucocyte function including phagocytosis and chemotaxis, and scavenging free O2 radicals. It has no effect on renal function at the usual doses.
