Joint Pain Medication

There are many kinds of joint pain medications, but up until recently the most popular were a class of anti-inflammatory drugs called COX-2 inhibitors. Sold under the brand names Vioxx, Celebrex, Bextra and others, these drugs were able to reduce the inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and related conditions.

However recent research pointed to the very serious potential side effects that this joint pain medication could cause, most notably the increased risk of heart attack and stroke. As a result, the most popular of these arthritis drugs, Vioxx, was pulled from shelves in September of 2004. Just a few months later, another widely used joint pain medication, Bextra, was removed from the market for causing lethal skin disease as well as similar health risks to Vioxx. The last remaining COX-2, Celebrex, is currently under fire.

Over-the-counter joint pain medication such as Aleve and Motrin are chemically related to these prescription drugs, and as such there is a likelihood of similar health complications. So it is not just the prescription anti-inflammatories that you have to worry about.
