They still have Celebrex.
Same concern with Celebex as Vioxx; it may increases risk of heart attacks. But mostly I had more stomach trouble on Celebex than with Vioxx.
My sister had a heart attack while taking Vioxx at age 57. We also have a strong coronary artery disease tendency in our family, and high cholesterol problems. So, that is a consideration in deciding how to deal with rheumatic problems.
Thanks for trying to help.
Cheers!
