ceoxx class action lawsuit

ceoxx class action lawsuit has been initiated by several firms, in Chicago, Arizona and Canada.  If you or someone you know has suffered from the use of Ceoxx or Vioxx, find more information on these class action suits.

Merck voluntarily removed Vioxx from the United States market on September 30, 2004 because the risks of heart attack and stroke developed in patients who have taken the drugs for longer than 18 months.  Ceoxx is the brand name used outside of the United States.  Both Vioxx and Ceoxx are a drug called Rofecoxib, to treat arthritis and pain.
