A number of clinical studies have shown there is indeed a link between cardiovascular problems and Vioxx. Patients who took Vioxx may have been at a higher risk for heart attack. Some studies reported an increased risk that was much greater than the risk associated with other pain medications. If you believe you suffered a heart attack or other serious injury as a result of taking Vioxx, please contact us immediately.
