34、 Co(总题数：3，分数：30.00)Celebrate. Celebrate. Physicians are delighted with a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory panels recommendation earlier this year that Vioxx and its cousins Bextra and Celebrex (all medicines known as Cox-2 inhibitors) should remain on the market, despite evidence they inc

35、rease heart disease risk in some people. The panelists reached their decision after weighing all the data and concluding the benefits of these pain-relieving drugs outweighed the risks.Specifically, these scientists acknowledged that, for some patients, these prescription drugs were uniquely effecti

40、that interrupted trial have not yet been published, there is good reason to believe they will confirm the protective effects against colon cancer established in research over the last 10 years.At the time of its withdrawal from the market last fall, studies of Vioxx as well as the other Cox-2 drugs

41、suggest that they had other anti-cancer properties as well, possibly reducing the risk of malignancies of a number of sites, including the lung and esophagus.Had these drugs been dismissed, their untapped promise for prevention would have evaporated well before it was evaluated and applied to save l
