The active substance in Trocoxil, mavacoxib, belongs to a class of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by blocking an enzyme called cyclooxygenase 2 (COX 2). This enzyme is involved in the production of substances called prostaglandins, related to pain and inflammation. By blocking the production of prostaglandins, Trocoxil reduces pain and inflammation caused by joint damage.
