Comment:
I was prescribed this for severe neck pain and spasms. Along with moist heat it has helped, however after taking it for 3 days I have started having severe depression: crying, along with stomach pain. I am going to stop taking it now that I read that it can cause emotional disturbances. This is the 3rd medicine I've tried for the pain.

Comment:
I use this drug to treat my pain and inflammation in my neck, shoulders, and spine. Not sure if it's osteoarthritis or fibromyalgia, but it works and I can definitely tell when I skip a dose. I take it once in the morning and once before I go to bed.

I was recently rear ended and had quite a bit of neck and shoulder tension and pain. This medicine helped calm down the worst part of my pain.
