| RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR CELEBREX | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
| 4 | Shoulder, foot, hip, lumbar pain | None at all. Takes effect in about 20 minutes. | Have used single 200mg, off-and-on, since 2001. I skip a dose occasionally to check the impact. I take myself off dose if current pain subsides and start again when some new area pain occurs. Ten years of weight training and running have rebuilt my core muscles following 35-40 years of serious, debilitating pain. One 200mg cap won't block pain (if present) for more than 15-18 hours so,occasionally, I may not sleep well. If I sensed ANY negative symptoms, as some describe, I wouldn't hesitate to toss the stuff. My Rx costs are fully covered. On the other hand, I paid for that benefit, up front, for 50 years. KOKO! | M | 70 | 7 years | 5/12/2007 | 4 | back injury at work | Tiredness | I found it really helpful. It took a few days to start working but when I tried to go off of it after two weeks, my pain increased considerably and I was taking 4-6 ibuprofen a day until my doctor said I could go back on the celebrex (200 mg). | F | 30 | 2 weeks | 4/25/2007 | 4 | spondylolisthesis, hip arthritis | None, until blood test revealed slightly elevated creatinine level | Took only one 200 MG cap per day, worked great. Unfortunately, my Doc took me off of it for awhile to see if my creatinine level returns to normal. Just scheduled back surgery that I had been putting off because of how well Celebrex worked. What a choice: back pain,kidney problems or surgery. | M | 60 | 2 years | 3/27/2007 | 4 | O.A. | it helped but have dizziness and diarrhea, so unsure if I will be able to stay on have been on 3 days. I am on 200 mg 2 times a day. | F | 54 | 3 days | 1/23/2007 | 4 | Arthritis | Back Ache, Facial Pimples, Gassy, Retaining Water, Head Aches | Took a few days to start working. | M | 25 | 1 months | 1/14/2007 | 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 | 4/19/2006 | 4 | oestoarthritits | upset stomach, slight increase in blood pressure | M | 44 | 8 months | 4/26/2005 | 4 | Herniated Disc | Light stomach pain, more prone to bruising | When I first took Celebrex, it was like a | M | 63 | 22 months | 12/16/2004 | 4 | osteaoarthritis in neck | A little stomach upset with some indigestion.

It's also used to inhibit colon cancer, so that's a plus for me. | F | 55 | 1 years | 12/27/2003 | 4 | for pain and fibermyalgia | sometimes stomach upset | concerned about taking it because i am also on coumidan | F | 47 | 12 months | 3/6/2003 | 4 | | 1/23/2003 | 4 | Osteoarthritis | sexual dysfunction | M | 46 | 14 days | 11/29/2002 | 4 | broken arm | M | 52 | 8 days | 3/16/2002 | 4 | knee pain | reduced swelling of knee | M | 56 | | 1/5/2001 |
