Celecoxib serves as a remedy for various conditions, including osteoarthritis (joint lining breakdown), rheumatoid arthritis (joint lining inflammation), ankylosing spondylitis (spinal arthritis), and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in children aged 2 and older. Additionally, it alleviates painful menstrual periods and provides relief from short-term pain due to injuries, surgery, medical or dental procedures, and temporary medical conditions. Celecoxib belongs to the class of NSAIDs known as COX-2 inhibitors. Its mechanism of action involves halting the body’s production of a pain- and inflammation-causing substance.
