Ibuprofen taken regularly for any length of time is bound to result in internal bleeding.
I've been a Celebrex achiever for about 5 years now, off and on.
Over the past year or two it gives me a bit more heartburn, so I've become an antacid tablet afficionado (the wintergreen Tums are great!) but it's worth the 'price.'
Not sure why we're "discovering" 4-5 year old study findings here.
Celebrex and the other cox-2 inhibitors are believed to possibly increase potential for cardiac arrest in those considered to be already at risk.
This is all based on extremely limited research.
