A member asked:
I was on celebrex (celecoxib) for years. went off for 2 weeks for a nasal surgery. how long will it take to start working again??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Uncertain: It may start working right away, however all medications take about four doses to reach a steady state of drug concentration in the blood stream. Hope this helps!
