So so: Celebrex (celecoxib) only works so so. We treat psoriatic arthritis with IV myer's and IV homeopathics.

Probably won't work: Nsaids such as Celebrex (celecoxib) generally have only marginal benefit in psoriatic arthritis. You need meds that are much more effective and which will prevent joint damage. See a rheumatologist.
