Can Oxaprozin Be Taken For Arthritis While Suffering From Sulphur Allergy?

I have been prescribed Oxaprozin for my arthritis pain. I am allergic to sulpher and have been advised by my pharmacist that there is something related to Sulpher in Oxaprozin. Can you tell me if it is OK to take this medication without having an adverse reaction? I would call my physician but it is almost impossible to get him on the phone. Thank you.
