Celebrex Information:
IMPORTANT
NOTE: The
following information is intended to supplement, not
substitute for, the expertise and judgment of your physician,
pharmacist or other healthcare professional. It should
not be construed to indicate that use of the drug is
safe, appropriate, or effective for you. Consult your
healthcare professional before using this drug.
CELECOXIB - ORAL (sell-eh-COX-ib)
COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Celebrex
USES: This medication is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory
drug (NSAID) which relieves pain and inflammation (swelling).
It is used to treat pain, swelling and stiffness due
to arthritis. This drug works by blocking the enzyme
in your body that makes prostaglandins. Decreasing prostaglandins
helps to reduce pain and swelling.
HOW TO USE: Take by mouth, generally once or
twice daily, as directed by your doctor. To decrease
the chance of stomach upset, this drug is best taken
with food. Dosage is based on your medical condition
and response to therapy. Take this medication with 6
to 8 ounces (180-240ml) of water. Do not lie down for
at least 30 minutes after taking this drug.
SIDE EFFECTS: Stomach upset, diarrhea, gas or
nausea may occur. If these effects persist or worsen,
notify your doctor promptly. Very unlikely but report
promptly: unusual fatigue, yellowing eyes or skin, severe
headache, unexplained weight gain, change in amount
of urine. If you notice any of the following unlikely
but very serious side effects, stop taking this drug
and consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately: black
stools, persistent stomach/ abdominal pain, vomit that
looks like coffee grounds. In the unlikely event you
have an allergic reaction to this drug, seek immediate
medical attention. Symptoms of an allergic reaction
include rash, itching, swelling, dizziness or trouble
breathing. If you notice other effects not listed above,
contact your doctor or pharmacist.
PRECAUTIONS: Tell your doctor your medical history,
including: allergies (especially allergies to drugs
such as sulfas or NSAID like ibuprofen), kidney problems,
liver problems, heart disease, alcohol use, high blood
pressure, swelling (edema), blood disorders (anemia),
serious infections, stomach problems (bleeding or ulcers),
asthma, growths in the nose (nasal polyps), dehydration,
poorly controlled diabetes. This medicine may cause
stomach bleeding. Daily use of alcohol, especially when
combined with this medicine, may increase your risk
for stomach bleeding. Check with your doctor or pharmacist
for more information. This medication should be used
only when clearly needed during the first 3 months of
pregnancy. It is not recommended for use during the
last 6 months of pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits
with your doctor. It is not known whether this drug
is excreted into breast milk. Due to the potential risk
to the infant, breast-feeding while using this drug
is not recommended. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
Caution is advised when this drug is used in the elderly,
as they may be more sensitive to the side effects of
this medication.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Tell your doctor of all prescription
and nonprescription medications you use, especially
of: fluconazole, lithium, "water pills" (diuretics,
e.g., furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide), drugs for high
blood pressure, ACE inhibitors (e.g., captopril, lisinopril),
corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone), "blood thinners"
(e.g., warfarin), NSAID (e.g., ibuprofen, naproxen).
Check all prescription and nonprescription medicine
labels carefully since many contain pain relievers/fever
reducers (NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen, or aspirin)
that are similar to this drug. Aspirin, as prescribed
by your doctor for reasons such as heart attack or stroke
prevention (usually these dosages are 81-325 mg per
day), should be continued. Consult your doctor or pharmacist
for more details. Do not start or stop any medicine
without doctor or pharmacist approval.
OVERDOSE: If overdose is suspected, contact your
local poison control center or emergency room immediately.
Symptoms of overdose may include severe stomach pain,
coffee ground-like vomit, dark stool, ringing in the
ears, change in amount of urine, unusually fast or slow
heartbeat, muscle weakness, slow or shallow breathing,
confusion, severe headache or loss of consciousness.
NOTES: Do not share this medication with others.
Laboratory and/or medical tests may be performed to
monitor your progress.
MISSED DOSE: If you miss a dose, use it as soon
as you remember. If it is near the time of the next
dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing
schedule. Do not "double-up" the dose to catch
up.
STORAGE: Store Celebrex at room temperature between
59 and 86 degrees F (15 - 30 degrees C) away from light
and moisture. |
