It has helped me with my lower back pain. I got lower back surgery four years. The after math of surgery left me with lower back pain for life! I needed some kind of medication to help me with my pain. I also take Lyrica. So far no problems with this medication.

I'm taking it for psoriatic rheumatoid arthritis, and while I still have flares ups they fade more quickly, my only complaint is that the taste in my mouth makes it hard to swallow

At first this drug didn't seem to be working, but after about 4 weeks I noticed I had no pain at all in the areas affected, especially my enlarged toe joints, and can walk and use the treadmill with no pain in my joints.

The side effects of nauseau, dizziness and bruising was not worth taking this medication. I had it changed after five days.
