  • I'm not sure if they're still marketing Celebrex and Bextra, but they're made of the same garbage (Cox II inhibitors), and they are just as damaging. I found out about this in 2004, had taken a temp job $5/hr with a "research" co, next to the DOJ, mostly kids doing tele surveys for government, big pharma and WAMU Bank. One of the surveys was to gauge public perceptions on V/C/B. This was also being operated as a drug racket, kids coerced into using cocaine, etc.

  • @MrAusty agreed man, why cant people realize and wake up that the Living Human body was NOT MEANT TO TAKE in these dangerous chemicals,, they have ALL natural herbal supplements which help the body without any side effects!! vitamins and fruits help big too.. but people depend too much on processed food and crappy medicien like this!

  • why would u even take these pharmaceuticals.. its all bullshit. the government is a bunch of liars, they lie about illegal drugs and say they are oh so fucking harmful when most are NOT. and these pharmacy drugs kill people all the time...

  • MERCK=MURDERERS

  • I used Vioxx before, and my experience with it was still far better than my experience w/ Anaprox.

  • very true.
