Etoricoxib and celecoxib pain relief advice

Posted Thu 25 Feb 2021 10.21 by Lauren

Hi there I’m new to this group and really need some advice. I have psoriatic arthritis which is extremely painful. I’ve been prescribed etoricoxib which I had every side affect so had to stop taking them but now I’m on celecoxib and still having minor side affects but the pain is still really bad and really getting me down. Are there any other pain medication I can take instead of or with the celecoxib? I’m at a bit of a loss as to what to do. Thanks so much Lauren x

I was on celecoxib for over a year and the gastric problems are a real issue, so rheumatologist wants me on methoxotrate or sulfrazine but yet to start as folate and vit d deficient. Not sure which to try!
