Guest guest Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 Hi, Dr. Mark, Many thanks for responding. Isn't Vioxx classified as a second generation COX-2 inhibitor? I'm wondering if Bextra is available here in London, where I live as an American expat. If not, I can probably get it from my doc in the US when I come home this summer (hopefully I won't need it by then!). I've never heard of Bextra, but since you're a surgeon (I've come across your postings), I'm sure you're much more up to snuff on all the new/best drugs available. I will see if I can get it here. Many thanks. I hope that everything goes well until July.
