Vioxx® Information

Vioxx® information from recent clinical trials indicates that users have an increased risk of cardiac problems. The Vioxx® information relating to potential side effects was not fully understood when Vioxx® received FDA approval; Vioxx® information on common side effects (such as upset stomach) was available, but there was no Vioxx® information indicating the serious potential problems such as cardiac arrest or stroke. At the time of approval, Vioxx® information indicated that the drug had lower risks for causing gastrointestinal bleeding; based on this Vioxx® information, the drug was widely hailed as a breakthrough for arthritis sufferers.

Researchers have since released Vioxx® information indicating the chances for heart attack was four times greater than with older arthritis pain relievers. Vioxx® information also links the drug to angina pectoris, stroke, and clotting. In addition, some startling Vioxx® information was reported in 2002, when an FDA report linked several instances of nonbacterial meningitis with Vioxx®, information that could prove the life-threatening potential of the drug.

All the available Vioxx® information indicates that this drug should not be treated lightly. Anyone using Vioxx® should review the Vioxx® information presented by the FDA and independent investigators, and should fully discuss Vioxx® information with their physicians before taking the drug. Current users should consult with their doctors to review Vioxx® information and decide if the drugs benefits outweigh its risks.
