Celcib 100 MG Capsule 10 contains celecoxib (100 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Selective COX-2 Inhibition: Celecoxib specifically blocks the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme, which is responsible for producing prostaglandins that cause inflammation, pain and fever in the body.

• Prostaglandin Reduction: By inhibiting the COX-2 enzyme, celecoxib reduces the production of prostaglandins at sites of inflammation, thereby decreasing pain and swelling in affected joints and muscles.

• Protective Gastric Action: Unlike traditional NSAIDs, celecoxib has minimal effect on the COX-1 enzyme, which helps protect the stomach lining, resulting in fewer gastrointestinal side effects.

• Anti-Inflammatory Effect: The medicine decreases the body's inflammatory response in affected tissues, helping to reduce stiffness and improve mobility in conditions like arthritis (condition causing joint pain, swelling, and stiffness).

• Keep at room temperature (below 30°C).

• Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Keep the medicine in its original packaging until ready to use.

• For arthritis management, try low-impact activities like swimming or gentle walking for 20-30 minutes daily to improve joint flexibility and reduce stiffness.

• Include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids (like fatty fish) and antioxidants (like berries, nuts, and vegetables.) in your diet to help reduce inflammation in your joints and muscles.
