Parecoxib
DrugBank Accession Number
DB08439
Background

Parecoxib is a water-soluble and injectable prodrug of valdecoxib. It is marketed as Dynastat in the European Union. Parecoxib is a COX2 selective inhibitor in the same category as celecoxib (Celebrex) and rofecoxib (Vioxx). As it is injectable, it can be used perioperatively when patients are unable to take oral medications. It is approved through much of Europe for short term perioperative pain control much in the same way ketorolac (Toradol) is used in the United States. A letter of non-approval for parecoxib was issued by the FDA in 2005.

DrugInteraction
AbacavirParecoxib may decrease the excretion rate of Abacavir which could result in a higher serum level.
AbametapirThe serum concentration of Parecoxib can be increased when it is combined with Abametapir.
AbataceptThe metabolism of Parecoxib can be increased when combined with Abatacept.
AbciximabThe risk or severity of bleeding and hemorrhage can be increased when Parecoxib is combined with Abciximab.
AbrocitinibThe metabolism of Abrocitinib can be decreased when combined with Parecoxib.
