I have M.S. I first used this for head pain caused by Avonex, it made it tolerable. I have since used it for near everything! I have osteo-arthritus with alot of pain, I also have severe ovary pain. This works! I love it. I only use it when I HAVE to. I can take up to 3 every 6 hours as needed, I have never needed that many! I dont use ibuprofin anymore I use this instead, it does not cause stomac...
Been on this for back pain. Isn't helping me at all. Makes me feel like I'm going to vomit but don't. Is this for real or a sugar pill. Dr told me it was the strongest daytime med he could give me. Anyone I talked to who took it said the same thing I said. I'm in a lot of pain.

I am a 81 year old male, that has Reactive Arthritis since 1984, I was on Celebrex for years, which helped the chronic pain, but my family doctor took me off, and put me on Tyanol 3, plus a 500 Tyanal, which hasn't been helping the chronic pain. I had to have an operation on my hand, the the Surgeon prescribe this medication for pain. On taking this med, I do not have any chronic pain from the arthritis....what a relieve. I take one every 8 hours, and it works. I am going to try and have my GP prescribe this med for my painRead More Read Less

My neck has been fused (C2-6) and I have degenerative disc disease and arthritis in it. Tramadol, taken 2 every 4 hours, was limited in effectiveness. Very dissatisfied with lack of relief.

I just got out of a cast for a fractured scaphoid. Been in the cast for 2 months. Im unable to move my hand, wrist or thumb. I am doing some flexibility exercises. I've tried 1 hour after taking it, I also tried stretching the next morning about 8 hours after taking it. I believe the pain level is just about the same.

Does not relieve my migraine headache pain to the extent that another manufacturer's "identical" product does.

I vomited about an hour after taking this drug and eating something. I was out with some friends for lunch and the nausea overcame me pretty quickly. I was then okay on the drive home, but when I laid down upon arriving home, I became very dizzy and kept sweating. 9 hours later, I'm still dizzy when I close my eyes. I hope this drug clears my system soon.

Use it as a back up when the other pain meds don't quite stop the pain. Let's say a pain pill at noon, no relief by 3 so then a tramadol and I am good to go. I think it is a very good product, and you need to work with it.

Does absolutely nothing for me. Might as well be a sugar pill. Dr. replaced it with diclofenac which seems to help a bit.

I was Xcribed this drug for severe back pain, I don't know that it would have helped if I've taken it long enough, maybe, but I stopped after 3 days. It had some rather unusual side effects: I completely lost my yearning for coffee, major loss of appetite, my voice (if you can believe that) changed to a high pitch that no one who knows me recognized. While it did made me feel like I was drifting, it did however cause insomnia. I decided to stop taking it as I did not like some of those changes. Reply if you have had similar experience. (interesting to say the least just hoping it is not permanent).Read More Read Less

Obviously this is extremely easy to use as it is just a small pill but I am not happy with the product overall. I have severe pain in my pelvis/hip area after being in a car accident and shattering my acetabelum (where the femur contacts the hip). This was over a year ago now. two Tylenol extra strength seem to do the same thing as these pills do (Nothing!) Due to a drug allergy I can not take ant-inflamatories such as Advil, Motrin etc.. Tylenol 3's seem to be more effective than these; however these do provide minor relief if needed in a pinch.Read More Read Less

I took this med for shoulder pain but it helped with all of my aches and pains and had some interesting side effects: loss of appetite, feeling warm, reduced urine flow. I didn't dare take it after 1pm because it absolutely would keep me awake all night even though it made me feel relaxed. Be careful not to add Tylenol with this medication.
