IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED ANY SYMPTOMS SUCH AS: "DEATH" . . .

[reprehensor]

"Hello, yes, I have died due to Celebrex, and I am channeling my desire to sue through my psychic pal, Ernie."



I'll bet the phone is ringin' off the hook.

1. That reminds me of the "erection lasting longer than 4 hours" warning...

"Damn, 3:45, can't I call NOW?

[GOPisEvil]

2. Yes, hello. I experienced death earlier, but I got better.

:crazy:

3. Ginger, tumeric, curcumin, boswellin, omega threes, pycnogenol,

green lipped mussel, glucosamine hydrochloride, chondroitin sulfate, enzymes and others don't list death as a potential side effect.

With the fanfare of a holiday parade, drug companies last year unveiled two new Cox-2 inhibitor drugs-Celebrex and Vioxx-to treat arthritis, inflammation, premenstrual syndrome, and potentially even cancer. All the hoopla paid off. Since then, doctors have written more than seven million prescriptions for these "super aspirin" drugs, earning hundreds of million dollars for their makers.

Cox-2 is short for cyclooxygenase-2, one of the key enzymes that helps the body produce inflammatory hormone-like compounds called prostaglandins and cytokines. Cox-2 is essential-without it, we wouldn't be able to fight infections or heal injuries. But when the body overproduces Cox-2, the result is chronic inflammation and pain.

The intensive marketing and advertising of Cox-2 inhibitors obscured why many people overproduce the enzyme. Too much Cox-2 appears to result from imbalances and deficiencies of certain nutrients. Rather than correct these underlying dietary problems, pharmaceutical Cox-2 inhibitors only mask the most visible symptoms. Relatively minor dietary changes, plus some vitamin and herbal supplements, correct the underlying problems.
