Well, this probably means that Merck will stop selling it in the US -
that's not to say they won't manufacture and sell it elsewhere - it depends
on the liablity laws of a particular country and how much of their consumer
base was in the US.
On a small, related note, I read yesterday that acetaminophen as well as
naproxyn and ibuprofen doubles the risk of hypertension in women:

It seems that aspirin doesn't have that affect but I can't take a large
enough dosage to help my arthritis pain. *sigh* And yes, I do have
hypertension which is controlled with medication but of course I don't want
to elevate it any more that I can help.

Does this mean that they'll stop producing Celebrex? It works like a
dream for me (so did Vioxx - switched during the furor, excruiating pain
for the week I couldn't get to doctor to change over to Celebrex and had
stopped taking Vioxx, took Celebrex and pain WENT. ) I don't care if I
grow a second head or if my innards liquify (note. exaggerating for
effect, here.), I ain't stopping it.
