Linda talks with Doctor David Borenstein, a rhematologist in practice in Washington DC about the drug Celebrex marketed by Searle, a division of the Monsanto company. Celebrex is a new kind of pain-killer — a type of NSAID, or non-steroidal anti-inflamatory drug — used especially for joint pain and the symptoms of osteoarthritis. It's been on the market since January - and it's become very popular. This week, Monsanto reported record second-quarter profits due in part to the huge popularity of this drug.
