Celebrex 100mg Capsule may have the following common side effects:

Abdominal pain
Diarrhoea
Dyspepsia: This refers to indigestion, which might cause you to feel bloated or uncomfortable.
Flatulence: You might experience excessive gas in the stomach or intestines, leading to discomfort or embarrassment.
Nausea

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Celebrex 100mg Capsule. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Dyspepsia: If you have indigestion, take this medicine after meals to lessen this effect.
Nausea: Consider taking Celebrex 100mg Capsule with food or milk to help manage feelings of sickness.

Celebrex 100mg Capsule contains celecoxib (100 mg), which works on your body as follows:

Selective COX-2 Inhibition: Celecoxib selectively inhibits cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzymes. These enzymes are responsible for producing substances called prostaglandins that cause pain and inflammation in your body.
Reduction of Prostaglandin Synthesis: By blocking the activity of COX-2 enzymes, celecoxib effectively reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins. This action decreases pain, inflammation, and fever.
Less Effect on COX-1 Enzymes: Unlike other NSAIDs, celecoxib has less effect on COX-1 enzymes. These enzymes are important for protecting the stomach lining and promoting blood clotting.

Pregnancy

Celebrex 100mg Capsule should be avoided during late pregnancy due to the risk of premature closure of the ductus arteriosus. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, it's best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Celebrex 100mg Capsule is excreted into human milk. Therefore, it's not recommended for breastfeeding mothers. Consult your doctor to understand the potential risks and benefits.

Alcohol

Caution is advised while consuming alcohol when taking Celebrex 100mg Capsule as it may increase the risk of stomach bleeding. Always consult your doctor for guidance.

Liver

Use of Celebrex 100mg Capsule should be with caution in case of moderate liver impairment as it may affect liver function. It's not recommended if you have severe liver diseases. Consult your doctor before using this medicine if you have liver problems.

Kidney

Celebrex 100mg Capsule is not recommended for patients with advanced renal disease due to potential renal toxicity. If you have a history of kidney issues, consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

There's no known impact of Celebrex 100mg Capsule on your ability to drive or operate machinery. However, if you experience side effects that might affect these activities, do not drive or operate machinery until they subside.

Allergy

If you're allergic to celecoxib or any other ingredients in Celebrex 100mg Capsule, do not take this medicine. Discuss with your doctor if you've had allergic reactions after taking aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Children

Caution is advised while giving Celebrex 100mg Capsule to children under 18 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving this medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should use Celebrex 100mg Capsule under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. If you are above 70 years of age, or have liver and kidney issues, or might be on other medication, do consult your doctor who will provide guidance based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Celebrex 100mg Capsule interacts with the following medicines:

Anticoagulants: Combining Celebrex 100mg Capsule with anticoagulants like warfarin may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
Mood Stabilisers: Concurrent use of Celebrex 100mg Capsule with lithium could lead to increased lithium plasma levels. Regular monitoring is necessary.
Hypertension Medicines: Celebrex 100mg Capsule might reduce the blood pressure-lowering effect of ACE inhibitors and angiotensin II antagonists such as lisinopril and losartan.
Antifungal Medicines: The use of fluconazole along with Celebrex 100mg Capsule may result in increased celecoxib plasma concentrations, necessitating dosage adjustment.
Anti-Arthritis Medicines: Combining Celebrex 100mg Capsule with methotrexate might increase methotrexate toxicity, hence monitoring is required.
Other NSAIDs: Using Celebrex 100mg Capsule along with other NSAIDs like ibuprofen or naproxen can heighten the risk of gastrointestinal side effects.

Cardiovascular Disease: Use can elevate the risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Use cautiously in patients with pre-existing heart disease.
Gastrointestinal Disease: It may cause serious gastrointestinal adverse events like bleeding, ulceration, and perforation. Therefore, careful management is needed in patients with a history of stomach problems.
Hypertension: Celebrex 100mg Capsule can exacerbate pre-existing hypertension.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Celebrex 100mg Capsule should be adhered to as advised by your doctor. The dosage may differ based on the severity of your condition and your response to the medicine. It's crucial not to exceed the prescribed dose without discussing it with your doctor.
