Celecoxib. Drug Name Celecoxib. Brand Name(s) Celebrex, generics. Drug Class NSAIDs and COXIBs.

Coxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that exhibits anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities. The mechanism of action of Coxib is believed to be due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, primarily via inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and at therapeutic concentrations in humans, Coxib does not inhibit the

Gastrointestinal Although coxibs are safer with respect to gastrointestinal adverse reactions compared with non-selective NSAIDs, 3.7–8.9% of coxib users

Conclusion. Unqualified assertions that COX-2 selective inhibitors (coxibs) are, as a class, 'safer' NSAIDs are untenable on current evidence. Coxibs seem

Ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac, indomethacin and ASA are in this group. However, Coxibs specifically inhibit COX-2, and examples of coxibs include celecoxib

Multi-target scaffolds. An important strategy to mitigate the CV risk associated with the COX-2 selective inhibition is to combine COXIBs with a cardioprotective component as well as to develop multi-target drugs such as: hybrid compounds, obtained by binding selective COX-2 inhibitors with moieties able to release nitric oxide (NO-COXIBs), in which the NO-COXIB portion was able to inhibit COX
