### Celebrex is a "COx-2" inhibitor, and works similar to ibuprofen (a
COx-1,2 inhibitor) with the important difference in that it doesn't
trigger GI bleeding/upset (caused by inhibiting COx-1). It'll do your
inflamation just like Vit I, but without the blooooody stool. Won't do a
dang thing for yer blood viscosity/clotting. (Shoot/Dang/Durn.)
