Due to the recent difficulty of accessing Celebrex from Canada, Norphar is now making Celebrex (manufactured by Pfizer, in unopened factory sealed packages) available from New Zealand. If you are ordering other drugs along with Celebrex in the same order, you will receive the drugs ordered from New Zealand in a separate package with no additional shipping charges. Orders shipped from New Zealand will arrive in about the same 10 to 14 day period that our regular shipments take from Canada and may even arrive sooner.
Celebrex relieves the pain and
inflammation of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is the first of a
new class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) called "COX-2
inhibitors." Like older NSAIDs such as Motrin and Naprosyn, Celebrex is
believed to fight pain and inflammation by inhibiting the effect of a natural
enzyme called COX-2. Unlike the older medications, however, it does not
interfere with a similar substance, called COX-1, which exerts a protective
effect on the lining of the stomach. Celebrex is therefore less likely to cause
the bleeding and ulcers that sometimes accompany sustained use of the older
NSAIDs.
Celebrex has also been found to reduce the number of
colorectal polyps (growths in the wall of the lower intestine and rectum) in
people who suffer from the condition called familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP),
an inherited tendency to develop large numbers of colorectal polyps that
eventually become cancerous.
Although Celebrex is easy on the stomach, it still poses some degree of risk-especially if you've had a stomach ulcer or gastrointestinal bleeding in the past. If you've ever had such problems, make sure the doctor is aware of it. And be sure to alert the doctor if you develop any digestive problems or black, tarry stools.
For best results, take Celebrex
regularly, exactly as prescribed. You can take it with or without food.
If you miss a dose...Take it as soon as you
remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the one you missed and
go back to your regular schedule. Do not take 2 doses at the same time. Storage instructions...Store at room
temperature. Side effects cannot be anticipated. If any develop or change
in intensity, inform your doctor as soon as possible. Only your doctor can
determine if it is safe for you to continue taking Celebrex.
More common side effects may include: Do not take Celebrex if you are allergic to sulfonamide drugs
such as sulfadiazine, sulfisoxazole, Gantanol, and Thiosulfil. Also avoid
Celebrex if you've ever suffered an asthma attack, face and throat swelling, or
skin eruptions after taking aspirin or other NSAID's. If you find that you are
allergic to Celebrex, you will not be able to use it. Remember to tell your doctor about any stomach ulcers or
bleeding you've had in the past. Also alert your doctor if you develop any
digestive problems, swelling, or rash.If you have asthma, use Celebrex with
caution. It could trigger an attack, especially if you are also sensitive to
aspirin.If you are taking a steroid medication for your arthritis, do not
discontinue it abruptly when you begin therapy with Celebrex. Celebrex is not a
substitute for such drugs.Celebrex has been known to cause kidney or liver
problems, particularly in people with an existing condition. If you have such a
disorder, take Celebrex with caution. If you develop symptoms of liver
poisoning, stop taking the drug and see your doctor immediately. Warning signs
include nausea, fatigue, itching, yellowish skin, pain in the right side of the
stomach, and flu-like symptoms.If you are prone to anemia (loss of red blood
cells), make sure the doctor knows about it. Celebrex occasionally fosters this
problem.Celebrex sometimes causes water retention, which can aggravate swelling,
high blood pressure, and heart failure. Use this drug with caution if you have
any of these conditions.There is no proof that Celebrex reduces the odds of
cancer in people who take the drug for FAP. Although Celebrex can reduce the
number of growths, you'll still need the other treatments and frequent checkups
that this condition requires.The safety and effectiveness of Celebrex have not
been tested in children under 18.
If Celebrex is taken with certain other drugs, the effects of
either could be increased, decreased, or altered. It is especially important to
check with your doctor before combining Celebrex with the following: Note: This information is strictly for educational purposes and should not
