Bextra- anyone try it and any ulcers as a result?

[Guest guest]

My surgeon has said that Bextra, although the same class as vioxx and

celebrex, does not cause ulcers. Anyone used it before, what were

your results and any ulcers attributed to Bextra? I was a devoted

vioxx user but may have an ulcer as a result and can no longer take

my fav drug.

Cindy, I have been taking Bextra for the last 5 months. I like it, I don't

have any side effect with it. I take it with food as my stomach can't

tolerate it on empty stomach. I am extremely sensitive to most medicine but

this one works. Before Bextra, I tried Vioxx and Mobic and showed Lots of

side effects which I had to stop.
