| 10. Celebrex story is getting overblown |
|
One study said there was a problem (with patients taking 4 times the normal dose!), another said no problem. People are just nervous after the blowout for Merck and Vioxx, but the situation is substantially different with Celebrex. People nervous = feeding frenzy for the press. ALL drugs have side-effects. Doctors and patients have to weight the pros and cons. - K
