Advantage:
Selective COX2 inhibition so decrease inflammatory PG with little or no effect on physiological PG so less GIT ulceration.

Disadvantage:
block COX2 enzyme cause increase activity of Thromboxane A2 and decrease level of PGI2 so increase platelets aggregation lead to increase incidence of coronary thrombosis and stroke.
