Celecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that exhibits anti-inflam matory, analgesic, and antipyretic activities. The mechanism of action of celecoxib is believed to be due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, primarily via inhibition of cyclooxygenase2 (COX-2), and at therapeutic concentrations in humans, celecoxib does not inhibit the cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) isoenzyme.

Warnings
Fluid retention and edema have been observed in some patients taking celecoxib. Therefore, celecoxib is advised to be used with caution in patients with fluid retention, hypertension or heart failure.
As with all NSAIDs, celecoxib can lead to the onset of new hypertension or worsening of pre-existing hypertension, either of which may contribute to the increased incidence of cardiovascular events .
A patient with symptoms and/or signs suggesting liver dysfunction, or in whom an abnormal liver test has occurred, is advised to be monitored carefully for evidence of the development of a more severe hepatic reaction while on therapy with celecoxib. If clinical signs and symptoms consistent with liver disease develop, or if systemic manifestations occur (e.g., eosinophilia, rash, etc.), celecoxib is advised to be discontinued.
