Taniya, who is 68, discusses with her doctor how some of her knuckles are hurting more and more frequently. The doctor describes how joints such as knuckles weaken with aging as cartilage softens and breaks down. The doctor then prescribes a steroidal anti-inflammatory drug called celecoxib. Why will celecoxib help Taniya? The drug will increase osteoblast activity to help reduce the damage caused by osteoporosis, thereby slowing the effects of aging. The drug will stop osteoclast activity in order to reverse the signs of aging caused by osteoporosis. The drug will increase prostaglandin production and reduce inflammation caused by osteoarthritis, thereby reversing the signs of aging. The drug will stop prostaglandin production and end inflammation caused by osteoarthritis, thereby slowing the effects of aging.
