oh it does though, as does vioxx. they are just *less* irritating to the

tummy. take them long enough & you can have probs. have tried both, prefer

vioxx for pain/headaches...currently take it daily. both bug my tummy

(have taken anti-inflammatories for 3 yrs), but was really not impressed

with celebrex. wonder if Merck would pay me for that?
