"Valdecoxib" Meaning
Valdecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that was used to treat osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and menstrual pain in women. It was marketed under the brand name Bextra. It works by decreasing the production of prostaglandins, substances in the body that can cause pain and inflammation.
Valdecoxib was approved by the US FDA in 2001 but was withdrawn from the market in 2005 due to concerns over increased risk of serious skin reactions and Stevens-Johnson syndrome, a rare but potentially life-threatening skin and mucous membrane condition.
