But, aren't they being approved without the desired gut labeling?

FDA just being ultra-conservative. Trials basically showed same ulcer rate on endoscopy as placebo, but the FDA kept a weakened version of the old NSAID warning.

Celebrex is around $2 a dose, or $4 a day. Supposed to be comparable to existing patent-protected NSAIDS, but obviously much more than the generics.
