CELEBREX

Celebrex is a cox-2 inhibitor, a potentially deadly anti-inflammatory drug manufactured by the company Pfizer and very similar to the drug Vioxx, though a study in 2004 revealed that Celebrex is even more likely to cause a heart-attack or stroke than Vioxx, patients being roughly two and a half times more likely to suffer a stroke or heart attack if they take Celebrex than if they don't.
