Piroxicam "I have been taking this medication for pain in my foot. My Dr. gave it to me for plantar fasciitis. I was in such pain that I could barely walk when getting out of bed or standing after sitting for a while. One pill lasts for 24 hours and works great. I haven't been taking it long, so don't know yet if I will get any side effects, but it works well for pain, and I can still function normally."

Piroxicam "I was working in the field making hydraulic hoses, making close to $10,000/month when I pulled a hose off a reel and herniated two disks. I was laid up for 45 days on Workers' Comp, barely able to make it to the bathroom and following everything my doctors were telling me to do. I got frustrated because they were putting other people in my area that I developed. I called a doctor who suggested Feldene and said it would take two weeks before it took effect. I was bouncing off the walls in two weeks and returned to work a week later. It allowed me to move and not become stiff. The ibuprofen and muscle relaxants did nothing to help me."

"I was introduced to the painkiller for period cramps in 2005, and it worked magic. A single pill takes me through a period of 5 days. It gives me relief to go through my job and other duties normally. I wonder whether there are any side effects, even though I take one pill per month, and at times I don't. I hope I'm not at any risk, as I feel the pill is God-sent."

"When complaining to a surgeon I know about Motrin affecting my stomach, he says take what I take, been around forever and it's a once-a-day pill! I will never look back, folks. I have a bulging disc that flares up when I overdo it, take this and a chiro adjustment and I'm better, sometimes I can avoid the chiro. Been taking it for seven years. A few months ago, I got some crazy planter's fasciitis thing and I want to cut my right foot off! New doc says, what anti-inflammatory do you want, what else, right? So within a week of taking 20 mg and hitting another 400 to 600 a day over-the-counter ibuprofen gel caps, this thing gets 85% better! Like another writer noted, it's affordable! Eat first and hey, follow the stupid directions on all meds."

Piroxicam "I recently had hip surgery and was in lots of pain after the operation. I tried ibuprofen and Voltaren with little relief. My doctor called in a script for Feldene 20 mg twice a day for me. It helped so much with the pain, bringing it to a manageable level, but caused the most severe constipation. So after about 5 days, I switched back to Voltaren, and the constipation eased up, and thankfully the pain was better, too."

"Piroxicam is really good. I took it for 1 week as I injured my chest muscle. Almost 50% of the problem solved. Thank you."

"Tried something before this, and it didn't work, so the doctor recommended this, and it was stronger and really good results, but for me, the pain is still there, if not worse."

"Had extreme pain after someone dislocated my shoulder by accidentally yanking downward on it. After the doctor replaced it, the tendons were highly inflamed. After a stint on both tramadol and codeine, I felt nothing but sickness in my stomach, dizziness, and no relief. My doctor then took me off all opiates and went for an NSAIDs three-prolonged attack with the norm: paracetamol, ibuprofen, and piroxicam. However, five minutes after applying the piroxicam, all the pain had completely gone. It works for three to four hours, and two months after the injury, I'm still not 100%, but I'm back doing light bodybuilding thanks to this amazing stuff. I never had faith in topical medicines, how wrong I was."
