BEXTRA
Arthritis Drugmaker Pfizer agrees to withdraw Bextra from U.S. and European markets at the request of the FDA. Citing dangerous health risks including heart attack, "life threatening" skin reactions, and additional cardiovascular events, sales of Bextra have been suspended.

Bextra (valdecoxib) is in a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It is also a COX-2 inhibitor like Vioxx, Merck & Co.’s blockbuster arthritis drug that was voluntarily withdrawn from the market because of the drug’s link to increased heart attack risk.
