A member asked:
Had hives from ibuprofen, very mild hives also from aspirin. need anti-inflammatory, want to avoid celebrex (celecoxib). is salsalate maybe safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
avoid all NSAIDs: I would urge you to avoid all nsaids if you are already allergic to asa and ibuprofen. Btw, I have never found salsalate to be very effective for anyone.
