COX-2, the enzyme that generates inflammatory chemicals. This selective action helps relieve pain and swelling from osteoarthritis or postoperative healing, while leaving the protective COX-1 functions largely intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ2: Can Previcox 227 mg be given with food?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The manufacturer states that Previcox Chewable Tablets can be given with or without food.
