What Experts Say

Nimesulide is a non steroidal anti inflammatory drug that preferentially blocks an enzyme called COX 2, mainly responsible for producing pain and inflammation signals. This selective action is thought to spare the stomach somewhat more than older NSAIDs, though the risk is not eliminated.

Because nimesulide carries a rare but serious risk of liver injury, most health authorities recommend it only for short term use, generally not longer than 15 days, and avoid it as a first choice for chronic conditions or in people with liver disease.

Doctors in Pakistan often prescribe it for acute flare ups of joint pain, postoperative discomfort or period pain, always at the lowest effective dose. Anyone noticing yellowing of the skin, dark urine or unusual fatigue while taking it should stop and seek medical care.
