Anti Inflamatory Medication

Updated

My doctor perscribe Celecoxib. An anti inflamatory. A 30 day perscription. With 3 refills. I have a torn meniscus in my knee and sciatic nerve pain lower back. Lot of pain. I feel its gotten better I took for a week. But it makes me very very nauseous If swelling is down. Is it necessary to keep taking anyway?

Hello, Catherine! How are you?

No, it isn't necessary, it is entirely up to you, though you should inform your doctor, if you're going to stop taking it. They may be able to prescribe something that won't make you so nauseous.

Other side effects of this medication may possibly include dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
