IMO, a very key quote from that article, Wolf:

"Based on the findings, the FDA is unlikely to allow either Vioxx or Celebrex to make general claims of greater safety than NSAIDs, but merely respective advantages over different individual NSAIDs, he said."

Hi Wolf With the recent FDA decision around Celebrex/Vioxx, are you raising your 5% market share for Pennsaid? And to what %?? Thanks muchly.

I recall several conversations I had the past year with GPs and a heart specialist. They adopted Celebrex/Vioxx very quickly for their practices because of the then safety profile. The heart specialist did mention he was concerned about link to heart attacks (? not 100% if that was his words) many moons ago.

Celebrex/Vioxx Safe, but not that Safe

Pennsaid Safe, Very Safe

(I always wanted to say that <ggg>)
