Celecoxib Krka is used in adults for the relief of symptoms in the treatment of chronic rheumatoid arthritis<\/strong>, osteoarthritis,<\/strong> and pelvic pondylitis<\/strong> . Celecoxib Krka belongs to a group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ( NSAIDs ), and more specifically to the subgroup inhibitors of cyclooxygenase -2 ( COX-2 inhibitors). Your body produces prostaglandins that can cause pain and inflammation and in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, your body produces more of them. Celecoxib Krka works by reducing the production of prostaglandins and thus reducing pain and inflammation. You can expect the medicine to start working within a few hours of taking the first dose, but it may take several days before it takes full effect. Celecoxib contained in Celecoxib Krka may also be approved for the treatment of other conditions not mentioned in this product information. Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or other healthcare professional if you have any further questions and always follow their instructions. You have been prescribed Celecoxib Krka by your doctor.
