Comment:
I have hip pain and some loss in function from tennis. On 15 mg I don't have any symptoms. Currently, I take 7.5 and it seems to improve function and reduce pain to almost zero.

Comment:
I have only been on this drug for about 2 weeks, but I haven't noticed much improvement in so far as less pain in my bone on bone knees. I also don't feel any less swelling, but maybe I just need more time. I haven't had any bad effects from the meds, but I am concerned my FAA Medical Certificate could be affected not allowing me to fly.

Comment:
I have pins in my hip since 2004. Lots of pain throughout the years but not really a fan of pain medicine. A couple of months ago the pain became a major cause for me going back to the doctor. Long story short, second day using this medicine and all pain is gone. All! I feel like a new woman.

This drug has not only helped my knee pain, but also my back and shoulder pain. Absolutely the best anti-inflammatory drug I've ever taken.
