A capsule of Celebrex (celecoxib) is to be sold in the Philippines.
The Food and Drug Administration said it will allow the drug, marketed by Pfizer Inc., to be sold under the brand name Celebrex in the Philippines.
Pfizer, which developed the drug, said in a statement the medicine will only be available through authorized channels.
Last week, Pfizer Inc. said that it had received approval from the U. S. Food and Drug Administration for the drug, which is approved for the treatment of arthritis.
Pfizer said it had also received approval from the Food and Drug Administration for the drug in a recent update to the latest version of the FDA's most updated drug information.
FDA's latest update to the latest version of the F. D. A.'s most updated drug information shows that the drug will be available in the Philippines for patients who have previously taken the drug for osteoarthritis.
It's also added that it will be able to be sold without a prescription under the brand name Celebrex.
The statement said Pfizer's marketing authorization for Celebrex has not yet been confirmed.
Celebrex, which is indicated for the treatment of pain, also is indicated for the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Pfizer will have to pay for the sale of the medicine for its shareholders.
Pfizer said in a statement that it was "continuing to follow the F. A. and the applicable regulatory and regulatory requirements" and that it was "reviewing the available data and developing a plan for implementing the proposed policies" and "continuing to monitor the progress and share updates as needed."
Last week, Pfizer also said that it would continue to support the efforts of local groups to promote Celebrex to consumers and to other health professionals and patients.
It has said it will provide consumers with access to the medicine through telehealth services.
The Philippines Drug Authority, which is responsible for regulating and managing drug development, said that the drug has been approved for use in the Philippines for the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other rheumatic disorders.
The approval was due to come into effect in late January.
Pfizer said that it will not provide a comment on specific dates.
The FDA has not revealed the price of the drug, though it has been suggested that the price may vary depending on the dosage prescribed.
A spokesman for Pfizer said the company will remain committed to continuing to improve the safety and efficacy of the drug.
"We are very excited about the potential benefits of Celebrex for patients, particularly for the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other rheumatic disorders," said Edward M. DeMint, the company's vice president of product development and marketing. "We believe Celebrex's potential to provide long-term pain relief in many patients is truly a win for those with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory diseases."
Celebrex is the active ingredient in the Celebrex drug, which is used for pain relief in rheumatic disorders, such as arthritis and menstrual pain. The drug was approved for use in the Philippines for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other rheumatic disorders in 2004.
It has been listed on the Philippine Association of Boards of Pharmacy's website as being in the "high range" for use in the Philippines.
Pfizer said that the drug is currently approved for use in the Philippines for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.
The FDA said that the drug will be available in the Philippines through authorized channels.
In an email to AP, DeMint said that Pfizer "has received approval for the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other rheumatic disorders, and we are reviewing the available data and developing a plan for implementing the policies and providing feedback to local groups and health professionals."
