This medication has not relieved the pain; in fact, the pain is more intense. I have had constant headaches since the onset of taking this medication over 6 weeks ago.

I've used for about 2 mos now for lower back & leg pain after I injured my back. I've noticed that I am really tired all of the time - can sleep 24 hr at a time. Also has caused upset stomach (even when taking w/food) and diarrhea. I am calling my M.D. to change medication.

Have been taking for 2 weeks 500MG tabs twice daily. No noticeable effect taking with breakfast but often get quite sleepy taking with dinner about an hour afterward. Overall joint pain improved.

This medication has been a miracle drug for me. Before starting this drug I was in constant pain from arthritis now I go through most days almost pain free.

Taking 1000mg daily. From the first day this product has given me my life back. My hands still hurt with use, but not as bad as before the rx. Before the pain was a 10 on a scale of 1-10 and 24-7.

My doctor gave me this medication for chronic back pain due to bulging discs and metal in my back but I am allergic to Ibprofen so I am afraid to take it. I am going to take it back to her when I go back to the doctor.

This medicine was working fine until I developed a rash on my right arm. Back to the Dr. to get something else for my heel pain (Bursitis).

I was prescribed this for severe neck pain and spasms. Along with moist heat it has helped, however after taking it for 3 days I have started having severe depression: crying, along with stomach pain. I am going to stop taking it now that I read that it can cause emotional disturbances. This is the 3rd medicine I've tried for the pain.

I use this drug to treat my pain and inflammation in my neck, shoulders, and spine. Not sure if it's osteoarthritis or fibromyalgia, but it works and I can definitely tell when I skip a dose. I take it once in the morning and once before I go to bed.

I was on it one week for OA and had to stop because of severe gastrointestinal problems. Diarrea, stomach pain, gas etc. was Just too much to deal with and very little pain/stiffness relief.
