How safe is Celecoxib for Asian–Indian patients with rheumatic diseases?

Abstract: Background: Cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors have been the target of severe criticism, more so following the withdrawal of Rofecoxib. Post-marketing surveillance of Celecoxib in Asian Indians, who are predisposed to premature athero-thrombotic events, has not been studied.

“…In addition, while the previously mentioned patient-level meta-analysis by White et al concluded that there is no difference in incidence of cardiovascular events between Celecoxib and non-selective NSAIDs, several points in the clinical trials do not match our study criteria ( 21 , 57 ). First of all, the majority of these trials were <26 weeks in duration, offering limited insights.…”

“…These paradoxical results of Celecoxib being protective at a higher dose in a shorter duration but harmful in a longer duration, as well as the neutral to slight protective effects of Etoricoxib, require further investigation to understand their underlying physiological mechanisms. Clinical trials mentioned in a patient-level meta-analysis concluded that there was no difference in the incidence of cardiovascular events between Celecoxib and non-selective NSAIDs [ 137 , 154 ]. Additional clinical trials may be necessary to establish causality rather than just an association between NSAID use and the risk of ischemic stroke.…”
