Celebrex 200mg

I have celebrex 200mg from 2014, could I still use these? ## Hello, Merry! How are you? This medication doesn't become toxic after the expiration date, but it does lose effectiveness and probably won't work as well as it did, when new. Thus, it would be best to see your doctor for a new prescription. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with?

My pills are 28 months old, I wonder if there are still good ## It is highly likely that they have lost effectiveness and aren't worth taking, by now. The expiration date is usually one year from when they are dispensed to you by your pharmacy and the original container was opened, so they have been exposed to the elements that cause degradation, such as heat, light and moisture. At 28 months old, that means they are over another year past the original expiration date. Learn more Celebrex details here. Are there any other comments or questions? ## The experation date on all perscription medication is a year after the date it's written. But most medications are still good well after that date especially if they were stored in a freezer or refrigerator. This is from a study the mi...

Is 'Ciplar 421' the generic for Celebrex? I recently started taking this brand and am not familiar with it. I had just noticed this on the capsule. I take it for arthritis. ## Yes, Cipla USA lists this capsule as containing 200mgs of Celecoxib, which is a generic for Celebrex. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with?

What is the shelf life of Celebrex capsule 200mg. The date on mine is 5/2/09. They have been kept in the original pharmacy container in a cool dark cabinet. Are they still effective? ## When regular prescription tablets and capsules are dispensed, they are required to have a one year shelf life, from the time you get your prescription filled. That means that yours actually expired on 05/02/10. This doesn't mean that they are dangerous to use, but after that date, they can start to lose potency and not be as effective. Have you spoken to your doctor? It may be advisable to just get a new prescription, if you still need to use this medication. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, stomach irritation and headache. ## Taking pills that are expired is not dangerous. They m...

I was just prescribed Celebrex for fibromyalgia pain & need to know if I can still take melatonin for sleep ## Melatonin is an over the counter supplement and, as such, it is generally considered safe, but it has not been tested for possible interactions with medications. Learn more Celebrex details here. Learn more Melatonin details here. Is that the only medication you take? How much is the Melatonin dosage? ## I take 5mg at night & no other prescriptions just B12 & D cause I also have Multiple Sclerosis aren't I lucky ## 3mg melatonin 200mg celecoxib

How close to the effects of Celebrex is Celecoxib (Mylan 7150)? So far I have not found any generics that come close to mimicking the original drug, Celebrex. ## I think that the effects of Celecoxib are nothing like Celebrex. Celecoxib is like taking a strong aspirin. Celebrex has a much nicer effect! ## It contains the same active ingredient, which is 200mgs of Celcoxib, it is used to treat pain, and swelling. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with?

I just need to wonder if celebrex is ok to take if I have Mitral Valve Prolapse, heart murmur, allergic to sulfa medications will be ok for me to take without further hurting my existing problems. I also have a Hiatel Hernia and Reflux syndrome. Do you reccomend me to take this? My Dr. says it is up to him and to take it, even if it is not helping my pain. I am on 100mg's a day. Thank you. ## No, reading your list of health problems I almost thought I must have originally posted it. If your doctor prescribe it for you then he/she already knows all your health issues. You don't state how long you've been on this med but if longer than 3 days and it's not helping then I would demand a change or go to another doctor. ## I am taking celebrex 200mg for 2 days but I feel chest...

Celebrex made me sweat excessively on my scalp, so I had to stop using it. I used it for a few years 200mg per day, for arthritis and broken ankle and a very bad back. Will coxflam have the same side effect ## Hello, Bets! How are you? Coxflam contains the active ingredient Meloxicam, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation. That said, the only way to discover if it will cause the same issue is by trying it. That's not a typical side effect that it's been known to cause, though. Is there anything else I can help with?

My Dr. was prescribing me MS Contin 30mg. q 8hrs & Dilaudid 4mg q 4-6hrs. + Celebrex 200mg 1 daily. Now he suddenly took me off the MS Contin, I have been in extreme pain! I asked him to prescribe Opana 40 mg or Oxycodone 30 mg., he said NO that Opana and Oxycodone are the same drug. How true is this? And which pill is the strongest? ## Hi I was getting 90 30s oxycodaines. But 3 days ago.I moved from.New York's to.upstate and I can't find doctor here ## Hello, Mikky! How are you?

Is this the same as viagra for men ## Can i take Sildenafil with my current medication, tramadol, panadol osteo, seroquel 400mg, lipitor, celebrex 200mg, phenergan 25mg? I do not have any blood pressure problems. ## If it was the same doctor who prescribed all of your Rx medication, then I think it's safe to assume that you'd be fine. However, it should still be noted that every medication carries the risk of side effects... I wish you good health!

These capsules contain 200mgs of Celebrex (Celecoxib), which is a Cox-2 selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation.

I just want to know how safe is this drug. I have arthritis but could not go to drs due to high deductible. My mother-in-law brought it to me from Mexico, and I cant find anything online on it. I was previously put on methotrexate, celebrex and other meds for swelling and caused liver damage. So I just wanna make sure this medicine isnt gonna do the same. Please comment and let me know if and how well its worked. ## Thankfully, not too long ago we had a wonderful person post on our site named Denyse and she had this medication and was able to provide us with the details on it and what it contains and I have been able to find the English details on them for our American users. The active ingredients are 100mgs of Pheylbutazone, 200mgs of Methocarbamol and 0.75mgs of Dexamethasone. That s...

what is the difference between this 2 tablets tramazac st 100 and tramazac co 37,5 ## Hello, Susan! How are you? The Tramazac ST just contains 100mgs of Tramadol, while the Tramazac Co is listed as containing 37.5mgs of Tramadol with 325mgs of Paracetamol. The FDA classifies this medication as an opioid, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I had a rotator cuff operation and now my doctor has prescribed celebrex 200mg, synaleve 2 p.o, tramazac Co 37.5mg and Tryptanol 25 mg. Are these not all pain killers? must I take them all at once as prescribed or can I skip the other? ## Can tramazac be harmful to a pregnant woman?
