Comment:
Within 1 month of using this drug, my liver enzymes spiked to over 10 times what is normal. Although I believe it may have relieved pain from arthritis, I am now having blood taken weekly, & just this morning had a sonogram of the liver. NOT worth taking, in my case!

Comment:
I obtained very quick relief from my hand/joint pain, taking this 2 times a day. However, my latest blood work indicated a higher calcium and liver level than my physicians would like to see. I was cut down to once a day, and my pain is back. Going in for more blood work and consultation.

Had severe pain in my left knee. Dr said all cartilage gone. Rubbing bone to bone. Had been taking Motrin 500mg three times a day. No help. Took one 75MG of this in evening and the next morning and the pain was gone that day. Good so far. No side effects
