CELOL + CAP 10 S

About

Celol + Cap is a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor, belonging to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This medication is specifically designed to target the COX-2 enzyme, which is predominantly responsible for mediating inflammation, pain, and fever, while largely sparing the COX-1 enzyme, which plays a protective role in the stomach lining. This selective action aims to significantly reduce the risk of gastrointestinal side effects, such as ulcers and bleeding, that are commonly associated with traditional, non-selective NSAIDs. Celol + Cap provides effective and sustained relief from pain and inflammation across various musculoskeletal conditions, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, thereby improving patient comfort and functional capacity with a potentially better gastrointestinal safety profile.
