  <description>Valdecoxib is an organic compound with the formula C16H14N2O3S and an average molecular weight of 314.36 g/mol. Valdecoxib belongs to the benzenesulfonamides, a subclass of benzene and substituted derivatives within the organic compounds. It is recorded as being found in or released from six sources: household cleaning and consumer products such as other smoking requisites; healthcare, pharmaceuticals and veterinary products, including gynecologicals and antiinflammatory and antirheumatic products; and electrical and electronic equipment, specifically magnets, radio transmission systems, and television systems. The recorded exposure route for this compound is oral.

In terms of biological activity, valdecoxib acts on three recorded protein targets, serving as an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase 2 (CA2), carbonic anhydrase 3 (CA3), and prostaglandin G/H synthase 2 (PTGS2). Regarding its health effects, the compound is used as a treatment for inflammation (PMC11226812).</description>
