Bextra® is a COX-2 selective agent.  It is prescribed for inflammation and pain from arthritis or menstrual cramping.  Other drugs in this class include Celebrex® and Vioxx®.  Many doctors switched patients from Vioxx® to Bextra® when Merck voluntarily removed it from the market due studies showing an increased risk for heart attack and stroke.
