"Side effects of etodolac included indigestion, constipation, painful urination, pain in kidneys, pain in the chest below the breastbone, and mental confusion. I had to stop usage in about a week. Horrible stuff. Stay away."

"I was prescribed this after I got a root canal on my bottom back molar or number 30. It does help with the pain, but it makes my stomach hurt very badly and causes me to feel a little weird. I am sensitive to pharmaceuticals, but I still try, hoping I can find something that helps. I'd almost prefer the tooth pain over the stomach pain, but the tooth pain sucks. Especially since I am unaware when I start grinding my teeth, I've ground that bottom tooth twice now and am kicking myself. Anyway, this did help with the pain, it didn't take it all away."

"I have taken etodolac 500 mg for years for occasional lower back pain due to a herniated disc. It has worked every time with absolutely no side effects. None. Higher doses of naproxen work but irritate my stomach. It is a cheap generic and has been fantastic for me."

"Etodolac is the only NSAID I can take for my bursitis that does not result in upset stomach or rebound headaches. I am 76, so I only need 250 mg a night, which means I have to cut the pills in half. Despite this inconvenience, I wouldn’t want to be without it."

"I was prescribed this for a toothache and swollen jaw, and it did nothing for the pain. It was equivalent to taking an aspirin. I'm guessing the E.R. doctors don't know what they are doing."

"I've got some sort of longstanding knee injury that will sporadically act up. Etodolac 400 mg twice a day (along with Prevacid 15 mg once daily) is the only thing I can take that actually treats the pain without giving me severe stomach pain."
