You might try Mobic. They switched me to it when Vioxx went off the market. I can't take Celebrex because I'm allergic to sulfa drugs. Mobic is not a Cox 2 inhibitor. It also will take several days to get up to speed in your system. You might also try Aleve...but I imagine you've tried the OTC meds at this point.

Titchou, does Mobic have the same side-effects as Celebrex? I took Vioxx also, and for me it was a wonder drug! Nothing has worked since. :o
