What is Elyxyb?

Elyxyb is an oral solution that contains celecoxib and helps treat migraine-related headaches in adults.Celecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication (NSAID) that is utilized to treat conditions that trigger inflammation and pain. Since 1998, the drug has been sold in capsule form (Celebrex); however, in 2020, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will approve Elyxyb orally administered solution.

Elyxyr oral solution is created with a self-microemulsifying delivery system that allows celecoxib's absorption to be improved and to work more efficiently.
