Celebrex is a prescription medication that relieves pain and inflammation. It is an NSAID, which means it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that is sometimes referred to as a "next generation" arthritis medication. This is because it works in a new way, one that is much safer--and often more effective--than the arthritis-fighting steroid drugs used in the past.

In some cases, pain can even keep people from carrying on with their essential daily activities. With Celebrex, these chronic pain sufferers have a chance to put that all behind them.
