I had rotator cuff surgery and after a month and a half of therapy I had gone back to the Dr. for a check up and told him I had been experiencing internal joint pain, and with Advil the pain would ease up so my Dr. prescribed Nabumetone so it wouldn't be as harsh on the stomach from extended use. It relieved the pain by 90% so it made movement much easier. I did notice after an extended period of ...

I had a severe allergic reaction to this medication. I was supposed to take two pills/day but was only taking one/day. While taking one/day I started experiencing several side effects but didn't realize it was the medication. I was having stomach pains, chest pains and pains in my left arm that resulted in my going to the ER and undergoing three days of testing to my heart, which turned out ok. I...

I had severe knee, hip and shoulder pain. X-rays have shown osteoarthritis. This medication has been a miracle drug for me. I'm running up and downs stairs as opposed to severe struggling. No side effects so far, and it's been three weeks. My doctor has advised me to use as needed in the future, but I am thrilled that I can continue to take it. I forgot how good I used to feel.

This drug caused an allergic reaction. My hands became swollen and developed blisters all over them. I have taken other NSAIDS and had no reaction to them.

This drug, although highly effective on my knee pain caused severe constipation. After reading the additional warnings, I will only use it when the pain gets to bad to deal with as it seemed to work on within a day or so.

I could no sleep on a Sunday night due to pain in my hip and could not not walk w/o severe pain the next morning. I got in to see my doctor later that day and was put on Nabumetone. By Wednesday I was 99.9% pain free. It was a freaking miracle! I have had no side effects whatsoever. I hope this drug works as well for you as it did for me.

For more than five months, the pain in hands and hips had become so bad that I was having trouble doing daily activities. It had gotten to the point in my hands that I was having trouble holding a cup of coffee & buttoning buttons. OTC pain meds simply were not making a difference for me. I've been using Nabumetone 750 2x day for the past two weeks & pain significantly reduced which feels almost like a miracle. The swelling in my hands seems to have gone down as well. I have not noticed any side effects. I am finally able to sleep, type and cook, and get around without pain again.Read More Read Less
