Nabumetone "This medicine has worked when nothing else has. My doctor was concerned that this would harm my stomach over time, but I've been taking it for 2 years without issue. I recently tried Lyrica instead and have hurt all over. I just went back to Nabumetone, and I feel good again. Since I take 1/2 of the normal dose, I'm hoping I can continue to take this medicine. It is the only thing that works so far."

Nabumetone "I had a severe inflamed left arm. Many medicines did not work. I then took Relafen, one tablet one hour before bedtime with food, and then at bedtime I took another. The next morning, the inflammation, which was in my whole arm, was gone, and I was able to pinpoint the area of the inflammation with pinpoint accuracy. I was operated on at that spot. A few years later, I had a severe inflammation in my right foot. It would not go away, so I then took the same dose that night. The next morning, the inflammation was gone."

"I started taking this medication about 2 months ago for severe neck pain. I could barely turn my neck, and I dealt with constant pain. I had been on medications in the past, had radio frequency ablation, and injections. This present medication has made me a new woman. I am able to go about my daily routines without pain. I highly suggest this medication if nothing in the past has worked."

Nabumetone "I was given this medication after I injured both feet in sparring in my Thai boxing class. After two weeks of slow healing, a second doctor gave me this, and it sped up healing. Upon returning to class and new injuries, it works well."

"I injured my shoulder, neck, back, and arm. It has worked to rid me of the pain in the shoulder, neck, and back. Not the arm. The arm injury is the ligament, as opposed to the muscle. I am taking 750 mg twice a day. Take this drug with food, or you will be miserable for an hour or two. (Nausea) Before I continue, I am no medical professional and only state my own opinion based on my experience. My opinion is that it is good for use as an anti-inflammatory. Not for pain relief. My muscle pain is partially caused by inflammation, so it works well. My torn ligament in the arm is not due to inflammation, so this drug does nothing."

"My hypermobility disorder (Ehlers-Danlos Hypermobility Disorder) causes my joints to be constantly inflamed, as well as my back, and other painkillers/anti-inflammatory drugs have never helped. My nabumetone has helped a lot with the pain in my knees and back especially, as well as my chronic migraines. I just want to note that this stuff takes a while to really kick in if you use it for chronic pains, so keep taking it regularly for at least a month before judging it."

"Since my radiation treatments, I have developed bad muscle aches and attacks, making me feel as if my body was leaving me. Nabumetone has done a good job of reducing the pain and attacks, but I am careful to take it with food and 40 mg of Omeprazole."

"I've been taking nabumetone 500 mg 2x a day for at least 3 weeks for bursitis in my shoulder and neck. This medication never eased my pain. I was also taking a muscle relaxer with it, nothing."

"I was put on this medication for plantar fasciitis. I can’t tell any difference in my foot at all or any other pain, for that matter. Practically useless."
