Drug Interactions
The metabolism of celecoxib is mediated mainly by the cytochrome P450 is isoenzyme CYP2C9. Concomitant administration of other drugs that inhibit or are metabolised by this isoenzyme may result in changes in the plasma concentration of celecoxib; co-administration of fluconazole has resulted in increased in plasma concentration of celecoxib. Celecoxib is an inhibitor of the isoenzyme CYP2D6 and the potential therefore exist for an effect on drugs metabolised by this enzyme.
Storage
Store at temperatures not exceeding 30°C. Protect from heat and moisture.
Action
Pharmacology: Mechanism of Action: Celecoxib is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities. The mechanism of action of celecoxib is believed to be due to the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, primarily via the inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase-2. Celecoxib does not inhibit the cyclo-oxygenase-1 isoenzyme.
Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Peak plasma levels of celecoxib occur approximately 3 hours after an oral dose. Under fasting conditions, both peak plasma levels (Cmax) and area under the curve (AUC) are roughly dose proportional up to 200 mg twice a day; at higher doses, there are less than proportional increases in Cmax and AUC.
