Celecoxib

What is Elyxyb used for?

This medication is used to treat migraines. It helps to relieve headache, pain, and other migraine symptoms (including nausea, sensitivity to light/sound). Prompt treatment helps you return to your normal routine and may decrease your need for other pain medications. Celecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), specifically a COX-2 inhibitor. It works by blocking your body's production of certain natural substances that cause inflammation. This effect helps to decrease swelling, pain, or fever.
