Celecoxib - Overview

Celecoxib, marketed under the brand name Celebrex, is a medication used for relieving symptoms associated with different types of arthritis. Push Health can connect people who might need a celecoxib medication prescription with a licensed medical provider who, when appropriate, can prescribe celecoxib medication, including celecoxib 200 mg and celecoxib 100 mg tablets.

What Is Celecoxib Used For?

Celecoxib prescription medication is indicated for use in relieving symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis secondary to its analgesic properties. Celecoxib is a type of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and works by blocking the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme. In doing so, celecoxib likely interferes with the production of prostaglandin, an inflammatory compound that can exacerbate symptoms in various conditions. As an NSAID medication, celecoxib has similar effects as the drugs diclofenac (Pennsaid, Voltaren), etodolac (Lodine), ketoprofen (Orudis, Ourvail), ketorolac (Acular, Toradol), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), mefenamic acid (Ponstel), meloxicam (Mobic), naproxen (Naprosyn), and nabumetone (Relafen). Celecoxib is indicated for use in relieving symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis secondary to its analgesic properties.

Celecoxib - Price and Dosage

Celecoxib medication is affordable, costing under 60 cents per celecoxib 200 mg tablet at many pharmacies in the United States. For people paying out of pocket, celecoxib coupons can sometimes be found online and it is worth checking with one's insurance plan to see if costs related to a celecoxib medication prescription are covered. After oral administration, celecoxib levels typically reach their peak at around three hours in healthy people and demonstrate a half-life of half a day. Following liver metabolism, celecoxib is primarily excreted in the feces. Many people are started at celecoxib 200 mg per day although the regimen used depends on the judgement of the medical provider and the health needs of the patient.

Can I Buy Celecoxib Online?

Celecoxib OTC is not available as celecoxib requires a prescription to be dispensed by a pharmacy in the United States. Because of this, one cannot just buy celecoxib online as the first step in getting a celecoxib prescription is consulting a medical provider. Push Health can connect people who need a celecoxib 200 mg or celecoxib 100 mg tablet prescription with a medical provider who can prescribe celecoxib medication when appropriate to do so.

Celecoxib - Side Effects

Celecoxib prescription medication can cause side effects, including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, abdominal pain and flatulence. Celecoxib and alcohol should not be used together, especially because celecoxib medication can increase one's risk of having a major gastrointestinal event such as bleeding, perforation or an ulcer. Celecoxib prescription capsules can also increase the risk of thrombotic events in the body and should not be used by people who have had a CABG surgery. People with an allergy or hypersensitivity to celecoxib should not use the medication. As with any medication, it is important to discuss concerns and possible side effects with a qualified medical professional before using celecoxib capsules.
