I was 39 when I took vioxx for a few weeks for a back problem, and six months later I suffered a heart attack due to a blood clot. BE CAREFUL if being prescribed Vioxx!!

i have a friend who does not have any history of heart problems and on june 2nd 2004 she went to the dentist and the dentist perscribed her vioxx 4 her root canal and on june 9 she had a heart attack. if any one can give me some info i would appreciate it. it would be a piece of mind to know what the cause if it was and it would help give her a piece of mind to finally get to the bottom of it. thank you

Nevermind that most of these people that are now complaining about heart problems have out of control cholesterol, blood pressure, and diabetes. Ambulance chasing at its best
