Etova-P is a combination of two anti-inflammatory medicines (Etodolac+ Paracetamol/Acetaminophen) commonly prescribed to reduce painful swelling associated with joints, muscle and ligaments. Generally, it is well tolerated by most of our patients, however its common side effects include nausea, heart burn, stomach pain, and diarrhea. It is also considered to be safe in patients suffering from diabetes, hypertension and hypothyroidism. So, it may be continued as prescribed.
