CELEBREX  (CELECOXIB):  This medication is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), specifically a COX-2 inhibitor, which relieves pain and swelling (inflammation). It is used to treat arthritis, acute pain, and menstrual pain and discomfort. The pain and swelling relief provided by this medication helps you perform more of your normal daily activities. If you are treating a chronic condition such as arthritis, ask your doctor about non-drug treatments and/or using other medications to treat your pain. See also Warning section. This drug works by blocking the enzyme in your body that makes prostaglandins. Decreasing prostaglandins helps to reduce pain and swelling.   FDA Approval Date: 2002-08-29 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

However, I had taken one the night before and one the morning of a cross country meet and the pain and tightness in my chest was unbelievable. I am 19 years old and in amazing shape, but I could barely finish the 4 mile race. Months later, I still have occasional shortness of the breath and have difficultly in athletics at school.

 4  arthritis none that I can point out I was nervous about celebrex at first because of the risks, but the pro's seem to weigh out the cons. I am taking it for arthritis that is related to having crohn's disease. My insurance wont cover it because I am not over 60. So my awesome doc has given me samples to last forever. F 21 2 months
