I fell down my steps in my apt. and broke my tailbone. This med.did pretty good controling my pain if i took it every 4-6 hrs. If i waited until the pain was at its peak then it didnt help me .So for me it has to remain in my system in order to work.

I use this medication for severe chronic migraine pain management. It is affective most of the time when my pain requires strong meds.

I have a fracture at L5 S1 in my lower spine. It pinches the nerve down my legs and the pain is huge. The Meperitab eases the pain a million times better than Percocets. It's a wonderful pain killer without that druggy feeling

I take it up to 3 times a day (100 mg) to help manage osteo arthritus pain. It is short acting (1 - 2 hrs) but for those times I need help beyond my regular dosage of Mobic it is a blessing. I have 75 available for the month & I use about 70. I do experience dry mouth & sweats.

I was given this med because of headaches . My doctor also told me to take my prometheazine to help the upset stomach . I think this drug is overrated it takes longer to work and I think the promethezine just put me to sleep . When I woke up my headache would be gone but I felt loopy .

I was prescribed this medication for pain relief after having a Hysterectomy (LAVH BS+O- w/posterior repair). The effectiveness of this medication was great with only one noted exception. Its effectiveness seemed to be reduced when taken with food. I did not experience any problems with nausea so I was able to take this medicine on an empty stomach. Because Meperitab is a narcotic(addictive), it was important to me to try to get the full effectivemess from one single dose as to lessen the durstion of my treatment for pain after surgery.

I took this after having open heart surgery. I only rarely worked or produced any noticable effects. I think its very overrated as a pain reliever.

Post surgery (breast reconstruction). This was the first time I had been given this drug. It is slow-acting ,but somewhat effective. Sneaky..
