Product
Celecoxib (Celebrex) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to treat pain, inflammation, and fever. The drug is available under the brand names Celebrex and Vioxx.
What is Celecoxib?
Celebrex is a selective COX-2 inhibitor. It reduces pain by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins that cause inflammation and fever.
How Does Celecoxib Work?
Celecoxib works by blocking the activity of the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which are the primary messengers in the body. This inhibition leads to a decrease in prostaglandin synthesis, which in turn reduces fever and pain. Celecoxib has a similar action to ibuprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces inflammation and fever.
Who Can Take Celecoxib?
Celecoxib should be used only when prescribed by a doctor. Do not take aspirin or other NSAID medicines unless directed by a healthcare provider.

Celecoxib Dosage
Take one capsule once a day. Do not take more than 1200 mg in 24 hours. If you have trouble swallowing capsules, you can break them in half to make a single dose.
How Long Does Celecoxib Take to Work?
