Celebrex (celecoxib) 200mg is an NSAID used for pain and inflammation, but long-term use requires caution. While effective for arthritis and chronic conditions, it may increase cardiovascular risks (e.g., heart attack) and gastrointestinal issues like ulcers. Kidney damage is another concern with prolonged use. Doctors often prescribe the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration. Regular monitoring (blood pressure, kidney function) is advised. Avoid long-term use if you have heart disease or a history of stomach bleeding. Always consult your doctor to weigh benefits vs. risks based on your health profile.
