COX-2 selectivity reduces gastrointestinal mucosal injury compared to non-selective NSAIDs, the principal pharmacological selling point, while the PRECISION trial (2016) demonstrated cardiovascular non-inferiority versus ibuprofen and naproxen, validating continued use.</vote> CYP2C9 substrate; CYP2C9 poor metabolizers may have higher exposure and benefit from a lower starting dose. Contains a sulfonamide moiety that has historically prompted caution in patients with sulfa antibiotic allergy, though the chemistry differs from antimicrobial sulfonamides and cross-reactivity is debated<ref name="celebrex-label" />.
