After Pfizer Inc. announced its best selling arthritis drug Celebrex is linked to an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes, the company has agreed to the FDA''s request to pull Celebrex ads from TV, radio, newspapers and magazines. According to analysts, Pfizer spent $71 million on advertising Celebrex in just the first nine months of 2004.
Although Pfizer has agreed not to advertise Celebrex, the world''s largest drug company said it was not pulling the blockbuster drug from the market. More than 27 million people in the U.S. have been prescribed Celebrex since its 1999 introduction to the market.
