Safely Buy Celebrex ( Celecoxib ) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Indications

Celebrex is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to help relieve pain and inflammation caused by conditions such as arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.

Celecoxib works by inhibiting enzymes that lead to pain and inflammation throughout the body. Thanks to this, the medication may also be used to reduce acute pain and pain from menstrual cramps.

Cycloozygenase-2 (COX-2) is an enzyme often found to be overexpressed in patients with cancer. Celecoxib reduces inflammation throughout the body by inhibiting enzyme pathways, including COX-2. Thus, this medication may be prescribed in combination with other therapies as an antineoplastic.
