Patient summary
Designed to mitigate chronic pain and stiffness associated with inflammatory joint conditions, formulated to support improved mobility and reduce swelling in affected areas.
Mechanism of action
Celecoxib selectively inhibits the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme. By reducing the production of prostaglandins, which are key mediators in inflammation and pain signaling, it effectively decreases pain and inflammatory markers in joint tissues.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Caution advised, avoid in third trimester. Breastfeeding: Caution advised.
The active ingredient, celecoxib, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug of the COX-2 inhibitor class, supplied as a tablet in 100 mg and 200 mg strengths. It is used for the pain, tenderness, swelling and stiffness of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Pfizer is the originator company; the medicine is also known as Celebrex.
Relief usually starts in 1 to 3 hours and lasts about 8 to 12 hours. It is not for people with active peptic ulceration, a history of asthma or severe hepatic impairment. Non-aspirin NSAIDs, celecoxib included, carry a warning about serious blood clots, heart attack and stroke, with risk rising at higher doses and longer use. Stop at the first sign of a skin rash, and check with a doctor about lithium, warfarin or aspirin. Heart attack and gastrointestinal bleeding need immediate medical attention.
