Celecoxib (Generic Celebrex)
Generic Name - Celecoxib
Brand Name - Celebrex
Celecoxib is a pinnacle pain
relief therapy for the cure of acute pain, menstrual cramps, osteoarthritis
inflammation and rheumatoid arthritis. Being a part of the new class of
nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
named COX-2 inhibitors, the drug has strong potential to fight inflammation
and pain. It acts by inhibiting the impact of a natural enzyme known as
COX-2. But the distinct property which makes it stands apart is the fact

the functioning of a natural substance called COX-1, which applies a protective
impact on the stomach's lining. Hence, it is anticipated that celecoxib
may seldom cause ulcers and bleeding when applied incessantly.
