herniated discs

Question  has bextra been more effective than vioxxx in treatment of herniated disc?

 
Answer  No. But to my knowledge there has not been a head to head study comparing these 2 agents for herniated discs or other back pain. You might ask your doctor to have you do the comparison yourself.
