The mechanism of action of celecoxib is due to selective inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which is responsible for prostaglandin synthesis, an integral part of the pain and inflammation pathway. This pharmacologic activity gives celecoxib its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects.11
Celecoxib is metabolized primarily by CYP2C9, a phase I metabolizing enzyme responsible for the clearance of many drugs. The gene encoding the CYP2C9 enzyme is highly polymorphic, including several functional variants of significant pharmacogenetic importance
