I'm too scared to take this medication. I've read all there is to read about it and it still does not ease my anxiety about it. I still suffer painful and heavy periods, have been for about 8 years now. I desire relief but I can't get over my fear of this medication. I'm stuck between fear and a pill bottle. I really don't know what to do. I have discussed having a hysterectomy with my doctor. Tha...

I received immediate relief with this pill and only experienced side effects the first time I tried it. The side effects were completely overshadowed by the fact that my flow was lighter than it had been in years. The second time I used it I had no side effects. It is very effective in controlling my flow and I highly recommend it. I time taking it with my meals as a precaution, but have taken it on an empty stomach with no issues. I now don't feel the need for a hysterectomy and am thankful that I tried this.Read More Read Less

I started taking this 5 years ago for the pain from my period so that I could still go to work and function. I have since gone through menopause and now use it for arthritis in my hands. My problem is, the insurance I now have doesn't cover it. So if I want to continue it, I can pay $619 for a 30 day supply!!

I was prescribed this medication, I have struggled with awful cramps, heavy bleeding and just unpredictable periods. This medication is a heaven scent, my flow is 70% less, my cramps went from me having to go to emergency and getting morphine to, next to nothing and if I need something extra, I take a Motrin. So thankful for this product.

I was taking Diclofenac Potassium before, with absolutely no effect. If anything, my cramps became worse. I also had to be careful to eat when I took the pills. Meclofenate Sodium, on the other hand, gave me immediate, long-lasting relief, without needing to be careful and eat when I took the medication. I am so satisfied with this medication, and definitely recommend it.

I use to almost hemmorage every month until put on this, when i started this I noticed a real difference. I had no side effects, only ALOT less bleeding, less cramps, and I had more of a life because I wasnt afraid to leave the house due to leakage accidents. I was normal again.

I was perscribed this for heavy and painful periods. The first time I took it, a few days later I started to have severe side effects including pain when swallowing, pain in my stomach and overall extreem discomfort. When I called my doctors office about these side effects (because it says to contact your doctor immedialty) they told me it was just heart burn. I stopped taking the pills as soon as I started to get the side effects but I still had them for a week (durring my whole honeymoon, it ruined it). I couldn't eat without severe pain and had problems sleeping because of the pain. I will never take this medication again. I'd rather have the cramps than that pain.Read More Read Less

I have debilitatingly painful, heavy periods that over the counter pain relievers do not relieve. It was so bad that I sometimes had to miss school/work because of the pain. I was first given birth contol, which did not work and my body did not react well to, so I was prescribed Meclofenamate about 6 years ago. Works like a charm- if I take it right away, I actually have pain-free periods. It even slows down flow and all that fun stuff. Amazing little pill.
