Celeheal 200 mg contains celecoxib, which selectively inhibits the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme.

🔹 Dosage and Administration
Take Celeheal 200 mg exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
It can generally be taken with or without food. Taking it with food may help if it causes stomach discomfort.
Swallow the capsule with water.
Do not take a higher dose or use it for longer than recommended.
The appropriate dose and treatment duration depend on the condition being treated and the patient's individual risk factors.
Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest appropriate duration, particularly because cardiovascular risks can increase with dose and duration of celecoxib exposure.

Abdominal pain

Kidney function may be affected in susceptible individuals.
