Voixx was a cox-2 inhibitor, and pulled from the market, as you know, but Celebrex is still available. Cox-2 enzyme is necessary for cardiac health, so eliminate Celebrex as a consideration. Additonally, we are learning that Motrin (Ibuprofin) is also not really great when it comes to the heart muscle, and doctors are getting literature now that suggests it too is detrimental. Aleve seems to be clear of any really serious side effects except that as all of the nsaid's it is bothersome to stomach. You could try that one, if you have not already done so. Available generic, and otc. You may find a combination of tylenol/darvon helpful -- it's call darvocet, script only. In the amounts generally prescribed, it is not toxic to the liver, but tylenol in huge amounts, esp with alcohol will indeed "melt" you liver. So, if you try Darvocet, limit your alcohol intake. Chronic pain is tough to deal with. There are some new modalities available -- one is a pain delivery system to the site itself. You'll need to see a guy who specialized in pain management, and pain management alone. The best oral pain relievers are those that are morphine based. They do indeed make one a little dopey in the beginning, but one can usually push thru that, and be pretty pain free, and still alert. The side effect, of course is constipation.

He swears its helped. When he is in a lot of pain he goes to the hydrotherapy pool to stretch it a bit. Other than that after every pain killer imaginable he now just sticks to panadeine.Good luck and I understand how painful bad backs are.
