RE: Bextra

[Guest guest]

>>Not withstanding all the warnings and advice previously posted on this and

other groups re Bextra and the possible side effects for us, I have been

taking it on and off for about six months.

I'm curious, because I don't think I've seen anything about Bextra before --

is this is the same class of medications as Celebrex and Vioxx, or something

else entirely?

Believe me, I'd love to find something better than Tylenol. Since my fall

last month, I've been taking 6-8 Tylenol a day, with marginal relief, but my

fears over destroying my pouch have outweighed my desire to make my leg work

properly. I'd like to know about Bextra -- any word on its safety?

Tis the latest I think in the class of meds known as -2 inhibitors and my

brain wants to say about 1.5 - 2 years post FDA approval.
