"I've used this in the past for extreme low back pain due to arthritis in my spine. It worked really well, minimizing at least 15-20% of that pain (and severe knuckle/hand pain in both hands from arthritis). I believe it's important to note that this is NOT a fast-acting fix-all medication. NOT for post-dental work or migraines. As my doctor explained years ago, it takes at least 7-10 days to build up in your system and start working. I was skeptical at first but gave it a go, and she was right. I'm very sensitive to NSAIDs, but this has never bothered my stomach. Eat something before taking. It's been unavailable on the market for at least six months, but recently came in, and I'm looking forward to some sort of pain relief in a few more days. Not cheap, but worth it."

"It didn't work immediately, but after I'd taken it for a couple of weeks, my osteoarthritis was finally under control. Before, I'd had that and gout attacks so bad I couldn't use my left arm or walk with my right foot. I've been fine now for 2 years taking this every day."
