Celebrex Warnings and Side Effects

Celebrex should not be taken by individuals with hypersensitivity to celecoxib. People who suffer from asthma, urticaria or aspirin allergies should not take Celebrex.

A recent study showed that patients taking 800 milligrams of Celebrex every day may have more than three times the risk of heart disease as those who avoid Celebrex. Celebrex has also been shown to put individuals at a greater risk for heart attacks.

The New York Times reports evidence as early as 2000, that Vioxx could cause heart problems. Celebrex is in the same class of drugs as Vioxx, and a recent study by the National Cancer Institute indicates the potential dangers of Celebrex are similar to those of Vioxx. Despite this evidence, Pfizer refuses to pull the drug off the market. Although Pfizer will stop advertising Celebrex to US consumers, Celebrex will still be marketed to doctors.
