Mavacoxib (trade name Trocoxil) is a veterinary drug used to treat pain and inflammation in dogs with degenerative joint disease.[2] It acts as a COX-2 inhibitor.[3]

Mavacoxib, along with several other COX-2 selective inhibitors, including celecoxib, valdecoxib, and parecoxib, were discovered by a team at the Searle division of Monsanto led by John Talley.[4][5]
