What Experts Say

Doctors classify Siskat as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a group that also includes ibuprofen and naproxen. It works by blocking chemicals in the body called prostaglandins that trigger pain and swelling. This makes it a common first choice for everyday aches, sports injuries and joint pain.

Pain specialists usually recommend taking this tablet with food or milk to protect the stomach lining. Long term daily use without medical advice raises the risk of stomach irritation and ulcers. Short courses for acute pain are generally considered safe for healthy adults who have no history of stomach or kidney problems.

Experts advise caution in people with kidney disease, heart conditions or a history of stomach ulcers. Older adults and those on blood thinners should check with a doctor before regular use. Anyone with pain lasting more than a few days, or pain that keeps returning, should get it properly evaluated by a physician.
