It's a prescription pain-reliever. It is in the new class of cox-2 inhibitors, supposed works like advil but doesn't tear up your stomach. I've heard mixed reviews about it's efficacy.

Hey, I would say Vioxx is a VERY good pain med, I have taken it in the past for my back and I have to say it really does work well, It is way better than advil http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/bang.gif wont be giving you a buzz http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/bang.gif

It works really well, but it KILLS YOUR GUT!!!!!! It is similar to advil or an anti-inflammatory! I had to stop taking it because of stomach ulcer!\
