Description
Celecoxib Capsules
Healthy Inc is a specialized global supplier and exporter of advanced rheumatological and pain management therapeutics. We provide high-purity Celecoxib Capsules (100 mg / 200 mg), manufactured in WHO–GMP certified oral solid dosage facilities. This “Selective COX-2 Inhibitor” is a massive-volume, high-priority export to orthopedic hospitals, rheumatology clinics, pain management centers, and government health ministries in Africa, LATAM, and Southeast Asia, serving as the gold-standard, gastrointestinal-sparing intervention for chronic Osteoarthritis (OA) and Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).
Product Overview
This formulation contains Celecoxib, a highly selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) featuring a distinct sulfonamide chain.
The “Mucosa-Sparing” Specialist:
- Mechanism (COX-2 Selectivity): Traditional NSAIDs blindly block both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. Celecoxib is engineered to selectively inhibit Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), the enzyme explicitly responsible for producing the prostaglandins that drive pain and severe joint inflammation.
- The Gastrointestinal Advantage: By heavily sparing the Cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) enzyme, Celecoxib allows the body to continue producing the protective prostaglandins that maintain the mucosal lining of the stomach and support normal platelet function. This drastically reduces the incidence of severe peptic ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding compared to older, non-selective NSAIDs.
- Chronic Care Dominance: Because of this superior GI safety profile, Celecoxib is the preferred, long-term daily maintenance therapy for elderly patients suffering from degenerative joint diseases who cannot tolerate standard NSAIDs.

Manufacturing Authority
Marketed and Distributed by Healthy Inc from WHO-GMP & ISO 9001:2015 certified units.
- API Micronization: Celecoxib is highly lipophilic and exhibits poor aqueous solubility. Our manufacturing protocol utilizes advanced API micronization to vastly increase the surface area of the drug particles within the capsule, ensuring rapid gastric dissolution and highly predictable bioavailability.
- Blend Uniformity: High-shear granulation ensures perfect distribution of the active ingredient across both the 100 mg and 200 mg strengths, preventing batch-to-batch clinical variances in pain relief.
Therapeutic Indications (Human Use)
Indicated for the management of acute pain and chronic inflammatory joint diseases:
- Osteoarthritis (OA): Relief of the signs and symptoms of OA.
- Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): Relief of the signs and symptoms of RA in adults.
- Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS): Management of inflammatory back pain and spinal stiffness.
- Acute Pain & Dysmenorrhea: Management of acute post-surgical/musculoskeletal pain and primary dysmenorrhea.
Dosage & Administration
Recommended Dosage (Strictly as per Rheumatologist/Physician):
- Administration: Taken orally, with or without food. (Taking it with food can further minimize the already low risk of gastrointestinal upset).
- Osteoarthritis: Typically 200 mg per day, administered as a single 200 mg dose or as 100 mg twice daily.
- Rheumatoid Arthritis: Typically 100 mg to 200 mg twice daily.
- Acute Pain: 400 mg initially on the first day, followed by 200 mg twice daily as needed.
Safety Warnings (CRITICAL):
- BLACK BOX WARNING (Cardiovascular Risk): Like all NSAIDs, Celecoxib may cause an increased risk of serious, potentially fatal cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction (heart attack), and stroke. It is strictly contraindicated for the treatment of peri-operative pain in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
- BLACK BOX WARNING (Gastrointestinal Risk): Although safer than non-selective NSAIDs, Celecoxib can still cause severe GI bleeding, ulceration, and perforation, especially in the elderly or those with a prior history of peptic ulcer disease.
- Sulfonamide Allergy: Celecoxib contains a sulfonamide moiety. It is strictly contraindicated in patients who have demonstrated allergic-type reactions to sulfonamides (sulfa drugs).
