Bias?

This article reads like it was written by a pharmaceutical company representative. It does not mention cardiovascular effects under the adverse effects section, only mentions it under the history section as a property of other, withdrawn, COX-2 inhibitors rather than a property of COX-2 selective inhibitors in general.

If this drug is proposed to have diminished risk, that's fine. But no claim of this is made, either actively or passively. Rather, it is strongly implicated by the conspicuous wording of the risk assessment of those other drugs. This reads to me like a strong attempt at manipulating the audience.

Any thoughts on this?

Absolutely, it reads as having been written by the lab. Would you agree adding a bias tag to this? 2800:40:39:1F85:5066:9F5D:280D:70F4 (talk) 11:25, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly disagree. This article merely mentions the medical use of a drug, its adverse effects as would be found on a medication label, and its brand names. JoeBo82 (talk) 00:39, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
