I am 59 years old and I have just been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. I guess I always knew that morning stiffness was just a beginning of serious joint problems, but did not pay attention at all, until the pain began. Now, the morning is worse, because those two symptoms are present at the same time! So, which is better, oral Celecoxib or Celebrex?

You do not have to think about this issue anymore. These two are actually the same thing. Celecoxib is a generic name, while Celebrex is brand name of the same thing. Anyway, I hope you had a consultation with the doctor first, because this drug, whatever the name, is not mild at all. It will help you with the pain, but it also might cause some other medical problems.
