NEW YORK (AP) — Pfizer Inc. is about to begin selling its own generic version of its painkiller Celebrex, a company that it says is helping millions of patients take painkiller pills.
Pfizer Inc. and its other top-selling drugs, including Vioxx, are about to begin selling their own generic versions of its painkillers — the active ingredient in the painkillers that block the body's production of a hormone called Cox-2, which plays a key role in the development of cancer.
The drugs, which include Bextra, Bextra XR and Vioxx, are being sold by the New York-based company under the trade name of Celebrex. Pfizer is buying all of its generic Celebrex, which Pfizer says has been approved for use as a painkiller, up until the end of the year. Pfizer has not yet revealed whether it will sell the generic Celebrex.
Pfizer says it will start selling its own Celebrex, which will cost $60 a pill, in about 30-60 days, while the rest of the country buys the generic version.
Pfizer says that while Celebrex is a painkiller, it's not the same as a Cox-2 inhibitor, or a NSAID, which makes blood vessels constricting.
It is not clear whether Pfizer will begin selling the generic version of the drug by the end of this year, or if it will launch its own generic version of Celebrex in the coming weeks.
"Pfizer is committed to producing a high-quality product in the next six months that meets the highest standards for quality and safety," said John R. McKinnell, Pfizer's vice president of global development.
Celebrex was developed by Pfizer and is used as a painkiller, McKinnell said.
The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says the drug is not approved for the treatment of arthritis pain. It is not approved for the treatment of menstrual pain and menstrual cramps.
Celebrex is the second of a number of arthritis-related drugs in the world and is approved for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.
Pfizer also sells the arthritis drug Vioxx, a heart-failure drug.
The company's other arthritis drug, Vioxx II, is approved for the treatment of osteoarthritis and arthritis pain in people who have been diagnosed with it, Pfizer said in a statement. It has also been approved for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis.
Pfizer says the Celebrex drug is the first of a group of arthritis painkillers that treat pain, and Vioxx, the company's first arthritis-drug in more than half a century, is the next. The Celebrex is available only by prescription and is expected to be available in packs of 20 or 30 pills, Pfizer said.
Celebrex is the sixth arthritis-drug to enter the market after rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, which are autoimmune diseases.
Pfizer said its arthritis drugs are the second group of arthritis drugs in the world.Celebrex is the sixth arthritis painkiller in the world and is approved for use as a painkiller. Pfizer said it has received final approval from the U. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the past three years to treat arthritis and other pain.
Pfizer said its arthritis drug Vioxx is the first of a group of arthritis painkillers, and is also the third arthritis painkiller in the world.
Pfizer said it has not yet submitted a prescription label for Vioxx.
Vioxx is an anti-inflammatory drug and is used to relieve arthritis pain and other symptoms, Pfizer said.
Vioxx is a treatment for ankylosing spondylitis, a chronic painful joint disease that can lead to arthritis and other painful symptoms. Pfizer is working with the FDA to develop a treatment that combines Vioxx and Celebrex.
Celebrex is the third arthritis painkiller in the world and is approved for use as a painkiller.
Pfizer says Celebrex is not a new drug and is not a new drug in the U. and that the drug was developed by Pfizer when it was first approved for use as a painkiller, McKinnell said.
