It belongs to the family known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), and specifically a sub-group known as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors. It is used in adults for the relief of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. In conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, excess production of prostaglandins by your body can lead to pain and inflammation. Celebrex 100mg Tablet works by decreasing the production of prostaglandins, effectively reducing pain and inflammation.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) - Pfizer Inc. has said it will sell Celebrex, the arthritis drug that treats pain, to treat a patient who was hospitalized and died after an operation.
Pfizer, a maker of prescription arthritis drugs such as Celebrex and Merck & Co., will own the rights for Celebrex until early next year, Pfizer said on Thursday.
The move could help the company to develop a new treatment for chronic pain and lower the cost of pain medications.
"This is a big opportunity for Pfizer and the entire Pfizer family," said Robert G. Zuger, Pfizer's chief financial officer.
The pharmaceutical company has long sought approval for Celebrex, which reduces the pain that most doctors prescribe for arthritis, but the drug is expected to be available in the United States by the end of the year.
Pfizer is now seeking approval for a second version of Celebrex, with the drug expected to be available in the United States by the end of the year.
A spokesman for the pharmaceutical industry's top-selling drug, Vioxx, said the company's patent on Celebrex expired in April. The drug's makers will be able to sell it as a generic until early next year.
Pfizer said it was working on a new treatment for arthritis, called "indomethacovir." The company said it has not had results on any of its arthritis drugs since it began selling the drug in 1998.
The company also is interested in selling Celebrex to treat a patient who had a heart attack in 2006.
It is unclear whether Pfizer's Celebrex will sell to treat arthritis, or other types of pain.
The pharmaceutical company has no plans to sell its own Celebrex.
The company will continue to market the arthritis drug and its rival Celebrex to physicians and patients.
RICHARD KERLEBOR, CNNMoney.com"We're very pleased with the agreement Pfizer reached with Vioxx," said John A. Dantas, head of Pfizer's clinical research.
The Celebrex deal will include the company's marketing rights to Vioxx, which is the most common arthritis drug.
The drug is also the only arthritis drug that Pfizer had a patent protecting over five years, so Pfizer will own that right until the drug is sold.
Pfizer is a major manufacturer of arthritis drugs, including Celebrex. The company has about $1 billion in sales.
The company has more than 1,000 patents protecting the arthritis drug, which is marketed as Celebrex.
Dr. Zuger said that Celebrex has been one of Pfizer's biggest sellers in the last few years.
MICHELLE BERRY, ReutersZuger and other healthcare professionals say Pfizer has also raised concerns about the new arthritis drug and Celebrex.
"We're going to talk to all of our patients and get them to take them to see a doctor. And we're going to take the patients to see a doctor," said Dr. Zuger, director of the division of at-home, geriatric and at-home care at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Medical Center.
Zuger said the Celebrex deal would make Celebrex even more popular. "We're trying to make it a little bit more affordable for people," he said.
Celebrex is expected to be sold by the end of the year. Pfizer said it will be selling the drug to the public at a discount.
JOSEPH P. GONZALES, ReutersZuger said Pfizer is taking "a major step" toward making Celebrex the same as other arthritis drugs. He said that since Celebrex was first approved in the United States in 1997, other pain-relief medications like aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen will now be available.
MARYL SONAR, ReutersBut Pfizer said it was uncertain whether it will be able to sell Celebrex to treat a patient who had a heart attack in 2006.
The company had been seeking approval to sell the drug to treat arthritis and to help patients with the condition.
In 1998, Pfizer's patent on Celebrex expired. But in 2005, a Pfizer subsidiary launched the drug in the United States.
