I recently read about a drug called Etodolac. It is an NSAID in the same family with Celebrex, etc. What I read said something about this drug being much safer in terms of gastrointestinal impact but I'm not sure if that was true or just pharmaceutical "spin." I had a problem five years ago with GI bleeding and I don't take Celebrex for that reason. Can anyone give me some more information on this drug, its helpfulness with arthritis pain, and whether it should be milder on my system? Thanks.

If you have had a history of GI bleeds, that pretty much rules out all NSAID's

Hmmm. Oh well, it was worth a shot. Thanks for the response. Bill
