What Causes Excessive Sweating While On Celebrex?

I take 90 mg of Celebrex daIly. I have off and on perspiration in my head and hair. The sweating can last up to 30 minutes and is very annoying and embarrassing. This can happen several times a day. I am 76 years old and past my menopause. I am not sure Celebrex is causing this problem.
