Celebrex and Bextra are two of the most similar drugs to Vioxx. Pfizer makes both of them
Both medications may not be necessary to help alleviate joint pain. Other non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs may work just as well , such as ibuprofin

I tried Celebrex for my achilles situation, but I had *horrible* side effects. I felt like I was absolutely STONED all day long.
My anti-inflammatory of choice is VOLTAREN, 100mg 2x per day.

Vioxx, Celebrex, and Bextra, are all COX-2 inhibitors, which work in the same fashion to alleviate the symptoms of OA and RA. They are all potrent anti-inflammatories made to reduce stomach irratation. The biggest difference b/w Vioxx and Celebrex/Bextra is that Vioxx increases cardiac incidents.
