"I love it! Will usually take about 2 days for it to be totally working - need to get it back into my system. Usually, after a few months, my stomach will start hurting just a little bit, so I go off Sulindac for a couple of weeks, then back on. I sure notice the difference when not taking it. I hate hurting - can't do anything when I'm that way. Sulindac gave me my life back."

"Was prescribed this drug at the lowest dose for inflammation of osteoarthritis. Took first dose with evening meal. Woke up feeling great and took another one with my breakfast as prescribed. As the day went on, I began getting horrible indigestion and intestinal cramping, having to run to the bathroom often all day long. Thought I would take a couple of days off to see if it was just a bug I had contracted instead of the medication maybe having side effects. I took another one just this morning, and within an hour, started having very bad heartburn, and then the intestinal cramps began again. Good thing I was home all day because I did nothing but run to the bathroom at least once an hour. Even taking Tums didn't seem to help. It's now 13 hours since I took that one pill this morning, and I’m finally feeling relief. Even though it helped my osteoarthritis, I will no longer be taking this medication. This day was not worth it."

"I've severe psoriatic arthritis also that causes severe iritis. For me, this was a miracle pill for pain. Most medications ate my intestines, such as Relafen. Other drugs that worked really well for me (no pain for 5-6 days) were injections of 'Toradol' and 'Depomedrol' at the same time (totally cleared up my iritis). The 20 mg of Methotrexate injection 1x per week didn't do anything except possibly cause calf muscle cramps."
