A member asked:
Is there a difference taking celebrex (celecoxib) 200mg twice a day and taking celebrex (celecoxib) 400mg once a day? for pain and inflammation after tooth extraction.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: One large dose vs two measured doses spaced twelve hours apart can make a difference in your overall comfort. Space the doses out for a more uniform result.
