A member asked:
Is it possible to buy bextra in mexico?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't know.: The drug is or was marketed under the name valdure in mexico. You should understand that Bextra and vioxx were removed from the market in the us and canada due to an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease and toxic allergic reactions. Celebrex (celecoxib) is the only drug in this class still marketed in the us. There is a clear reason why the drugs are not available.
