    You gotta step up to naproxen, bro. Just make sure you eat something with each dose or it will fuck up your stomach.

      They’re both bad long term.

      NSAIDS are indiscriminate COX inhibitors (which is why they mess with your stomach, COX-1 is part of the stomach lining goo production). COX-2 inhibitors such as Celebrex don’t have this issue (or at least significantly less).

      Personally I don’t find any of the COX inhibitors to be effective at all, and their risks are well above 0.

      Makes me wonder if other, supposedly “risky” drugs are actually a better choice.
