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)

 2  hip surgery protocol Gas; bloating; weight gain; abdominal discomfort I had to take celebrex for 3 weeks following a hip surgery to prevent bone regrowth. While it is an NSAID, I don't feel like it did anything for the pain. Luckily, I had other meds for that. I definitely didn't enjoy the crazy amount of gas it produced in my stomach and the abdominal discomfort. Glad I was only on it for 3 weeks. F 30 3 weeks

 2  osteoarthritis Having lots of gas! Causes rapid heart beat and I am very fatigued. Also having increased appetite and weight gain. Really don't like these side effects at all. My pain is some what better but definetly not worth all the side effects and the way I feel. I was determined to give it a month but don't think I can continue to feel this way. Probably gonna call it "quits" for Celebrex! F 55 3 weeks
