For Osteoarthritis "Prescribed two Arthrotec 75 daily plus two tramadol due to osteoarthritis in both knees. Had to drop to one Arthrotec taken in the morning due to reflux and vomit during the night. Feel hunger constantly, even when fed. Weight hard to manage and can still feel sick and dizzy with a burbling stomach for hours after taking Arthrotec."

Diclofenac / misoprostol for Sciatica "Started taking this medication about a week ago for sciatica-related pain. I had L5-L6 back surgery 10 years ago and get flare-ups of pain from post-surgery. It has helped the pain a fair bit. I still feel the right buttock pain when driving my car, but other types of sitting are much better. The side effects are not so good: a lot of bloating. I feel like I have a balloon in my tummy, upset stomach, lightheadedness, and dizziness. With having vertigo in the past, it's hard to tell if it's vertigo or the medication. The doctor wanted me to try it for 2 weeks, but I will go see him today after 1 week and have a chat with him about it. My dosage is 2 pills per day with food, 50MG. I will ask if taking 1 per day may be a good idea, and who knows, it may be enough."

Diclofenac / misoprostol for Osteoarthritis "Just started taking Arthrotec, but I can tell a difference already. I have less pain. I also feel very hungry and nauseous. I've had a little dizziness too."
