I was on this most of last year and it works better than anything else I hve been on. I used to get really achy after driving back and forth from work (1 hour one way) and at nights i did not sleep well, would wake up stiff and achy, but not on this medication.

Comment:
I have been treated for a spinal injury I received in the military and related arthritis for 20 years. I have had numerous problems with other nsaid meds ranging from gerd to allergic reactions. With piroicam I had absolutly no difficulty and more relief than any other nsaid has given me. This medication has been a lrue lifesaver.
