List of NSAIDS
Periodically we get posts from people asking if particular meds are NSAIDS or not and occasionally we see a post where someone has been prescribed an NSAID or given an NSAID in the ER even though they'd told their doctor they can't take them. So I just thought I'd post a link to a list of NSAIDS. Note that this is only a partial list but it includes many of the more common ones that are prescribed.

I understand your "disclaimer" ....you are not a medical doctor etc...etc... But what's YOUR verdict on Celebrex? Because If I "can" take it, I would like to start, or at least discuss it with my PCP. Unfortunately, since I changed insurances, I NO LONGER have access to a bariatric surgeon, and the dietician will not address any medicines. MY PCP is freggin CLUELESS!
I don't know enough about it to have an informed opinion, really. I do know that my bariatric surgeon said she did not feel it was safe. But I know many do think it is safe. I haven't researched it enough to know what the research says. If you figure it out, let me know, would you?
