Your system?It takes about 2 days for your body to clear Celebrex after you stop taking the drug.Celebrex isn’t known to cause dependence or withdrawal. With dependence, your body needs the drug to feel as you typically would. Withdrawal symptoms are side effects that can occur when you stop taking a drug that your body has become dependent on.Certain pain-relieving drugs have a high potential for misuse. That’s because taking them can cause pleasant or euphoric feelings, also known as a high. This can sometimes lead to addiction or dependence on these drugs and withdrawal symptoms when you stop taking them.Drugs that are associated with these problems are primarily opioid pain relievers, such as codeine, oxycodone (OxyContin), and hydrocodone (Hysingla ER). Opioids are sometimes known as narcotics. Due to their potential for misuse and dependence, these drugs are controlled substances. This means they’re prescribed and dispensed under federal laws in the United States. These laws help ensure that these drugs are used safely.Unlike opioids, Celebrex is not a narcotic or a controlled substance. It does not cause a high, it’s not addictive, and stopping Celebrex use does not cause withdrawal symptoms. When you stop taking Celebrex, there’s no need to taper your dose (stop treatment gradually).If you have concerns about withdrawal or dependence for any medications you take, including Celebrex, talk with your doctor.You may wonder how Celebrex compares with other medications that are prescribed for similar uses.
