Hi,

does anyone know anything about the gluten content of Celebrex or Vioxx?

I need to take a pain med for an arthritic-like condition but don't want to
take standard non-steroidal anti inflammatories because they hurt the gut.

Cox-2 inhibitors, like Celebrex and Vioxx, seem to have much less tummy
irritation.

Maybe even if there is gluten in them, I can still take them since I'm not a
biopsy diagnosed celiac. I'm currently eating lactose and wheat free (doesn't
really help me feel better) and working up to fully gluten-free diet for a
few months to see if it helps my CFS.

PLEASE - any info regarding these meds? The page I usually check is currently
not up!

Patrick
