Bextra

[Guest guest]

Yes I have tried them all, vioxx, celebrex, and bextra as well as all

the other ones, oxycontin, percocet, oxy ir, vicodin, on and on and

on. The bextra did not do a darn thing for me, and it is a pricey

little drug. I wish it has worked but it didn't. I had better luck

with ultram wich is a non narcotic, if your looking for non narcotic

drugs, i would sure give the bextra a shot, see if he will give you

samples though, as it is expensive. My podiatrist gave me a box of

them to try and I took them for about 3 months and found that the

pain was the same. So I never had to pay for it. Others tell me it is

great though, so who really knows as we are all different.

For me the best pain reliever i ever took was oxycontin, but it can

be hard to get and it too is pricey.

also it is a narcotic and lots of people don't want to take them as

they have a stigma attached to them.

Anyhow that is my take on Bextra. Give it a shot, but see if you can

get some samples to try first.
