Description: Cox-2 inhibitors are a type of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that specifically blocks COX-2 enzymes. COX-2 enzymes are responsible for releasing prostaglandins after infection or injury. NSAIDs that favor COX-2 enzymes have a higher risk of cardiovascular effects but less gastrointestinal effects.

What are COX 2 Inhibitors. COX 2 inhibitors are drugs that inhibit the action of COX 2. They are important for treating inflammation and pain in short-term pain and many types of arthritis. Celecoxib is an example of COX 2 inhibitors. Importantly, COX 2 inhibitors do not cause chronic ulceration and acute injury.
