This medication is amazing for my menstrual cramps. I cannot take anything related to painkillers as they make me ill but Sprix as it is a strong analgesic fits the bill. Yes it burns when it is sprayed and yes I know how to spray it as directed but yeah it still burns. However, I’ll take super horrible burning in my nose for 1 minute over cramps all day.

I'm not sure why everyone is complaining about the spray burning so much. Maybe they're not doing it right? You're not supposed to sniff the spray up your nose after you use it; it's supposed to sit in your nostril. If you do that (the correct way) it only burns a little bit for a few seconds. The only problem I had was that it made me sneeze after and caused my nose to run, which ... Show Full Comment

The only problem I had was that it made me sneeze after and caused my nose to run, which probably decreased some of the effectiveness. I did get some pain relief from this though.

Narcotic pain relievers have too many negative side effects, for me personally and I am so grateful that there is a non-narcotic pain reliever which works and doesn't make you sluggish, tired, nauseous or addicted! I only wish that the insurance companies would cover the cost as it is not cheap at all, nor is it easily filled at a pharmacy.

I have severE lower back pain, so my dr prescribed Sprix and it actually was mailed to me at no charge. While taking this medication, it helped, somewhat, but you have to pay attention to your body as NSAIDS is a leading cause of other medical conditions. I was recently diagnosed with bleeding on my brain. Not saying this is directly caused it, but I have never suffered headaches until after ... Show Full Comment

Not saying this is directly caused it, but I have never suffered headaches until after using this medication, with swelling to my temples to my eye sockets.

My nose burned like crazy but only for a short time. The pain relief was almost magical. I save it for days when I'm working in the garden. I'm normally crippled afterward from my RA and the severe joint damage that it did. I can put up with the nasal pain. It is easier if I point it toward the medial side of the nostrils. I have to be careful not to snuff it up my nose. I vomited w ... Show Full Comment

I'm normally crippled afterward from my RA and the severe joint damage that it did. I can put up with the nasal pain. It is easier if I point it toward the medial side of the nostrils. I have to be careful not to snuff it up my nose. I vomited when I got some down my throat. The pain relief was so much better than without it that I'll put up with the very short term nasal issues. I wish that one vial lasted longer than 24 hours. It lasted for about 7-8 hours for me.
