Celebrex Drug Information

Celebrex is mainly indicated for the treatment of different kinds of arthritis- osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. The generic drug is also prescribed for conditions such as ankylosing spondylitis, primary dysmenorrhea, acute pain and FAP or Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. Since this medication is a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID), it brings about its actions by inhibiting the formation of a substance called prostaglandin. Involved in the formation of these prostaglandins are two main enzymes Cox1 and Cox2. This medication only inhibits Cox1 pathway and not Cox2.
