Valdecoxib is a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor that blocks prostaglandin synthesis at inflammatory sites while sparing COX-1-mediated gastric and platelet protection, providing analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects with reduced gastrointestinal side effects compared to non-selective NSAIDs. It was approved for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, primary dysmenorrhea, and acute pain management. It was withdrawn from the market due to increased cardiovascular risks and severe skin reactions (Stevens-Johnson syndrome).
