Brian, from a Merrill Lynch 2/1 Report "Celebrex - Strong out of the Box":

Merck's Vioxx, which is currently under priority review with the FDA, could be approved by May 23 rd. Celebrex is indicated for osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis, while Merck is seeking indication for osteoarthritis and pain for Vioxx.

P.S. Merck submitted the application for Vioxx on Nov. 23, 1998.
If approved, most analysts expect the drug to be available in June.

Vioxx was given priority review by the FDA. Accordingly, it should be on the market anywhere form May to July, 1999.
