Comment:
I had been in severe pain in my knee for 4 months. The second opinion Dr. finally figured out what was going on and then prescribed me Etodolac 400mg. I can not describe how well it has worked for me. By the second day I was feeling 75% better. I have been on the medication now for 2 weeks and I am 100% better. It has been a life saver for me.

However after using for 20+ years for fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis I now have liver problems,Excessive bilirubin in urine but all tests normal,so I am not taking Lodine to eliminate possible causes of my current problem.It does say it can cause liver problems but so can many drugs.Its hard without it as it is effective.

Comment:
I was prescribed this for my fibromyalgia. On days where my pain level is tolerable, this medication is fine, but on days that I have more pain, I find myself being worse off. This is mainly because I can't even take BC Powder to help me out. I'm literally stuck with more pain and can't do a thing about it. Not worth it.

It's a placebo as far as I'm concerned. Ibuprofen has a better effect than this stuff
