I have been on Vicoprofen for a few years now for Migraines, Kidney Stones. I feel it works alot better then Extra Strength Vicodin. I take the 7.5 200 strength. It doesnt upset my stomach like the tylenol did with the Vicodin. If you do get a upset stomach I recommend eat before you take the med. But sometimes doing so lessens the effect of the Vicoprofen. so taking a anti-nausea med will prevent...
this med does make you feel weird , not doappy or tied but just wierd, I can not describe the feeling, over all differnet you could function on this mediction.

Broke my back , 21/2 years ago it is the only thing that helps me live a somewhat normal life day to day. I do understand everything that is going on with this drug, but there are people that REALLY do need this to get thru the day without pain that would keep me in bed every day. I have tried absolutely everything from therapy to swimming at work hardening therapy to every other kind of drug on the market in this is the only thing that helps.

Have been taking 7.5/200 up to 4 times per day for going on 7 years. The pills don't get me high and they no longer make me drowsy. At this point in my treatment all the pills do is take the edge off of my chronic back ruptured discs), knee pain etc...

I've been taking the 7.5/200 for 2 1/2 years. Works ok for pain. I have chronic spinal pain. The Ibuprofen is not as strong as Tylenol 500. Now we change to 10/200. I just started taking it. I hope is a little better for pain. Don't take to many and get hooked up. I have never got high on this drug and I'll try not too. It works good for me. But the pain is still there but not as intense. I will check back on the 10/200.

I am very dissatisfied with this medication. I have had back surgery twice and it does absolutely nothing for me. I was prescribed a different medication and the pharmacist substituted it for this. I have had it before and it did nothing for me so I knew it would not this time. I am fed up with this medication and being given it. I would not recommend this medication for anybody with serious pain.

I have two herniated disks in lower back and osteoarthritis - cronic pain. I never take more than two per day as I don't want to be addicted. Unfortunately, after taking for a while you build a tolerance and it ceases to work much. Over the counter meds do absolutely nothing. Be careful with the amount you take.
