I am amazed and thankful for this drug. I have been on it for 4 days and all i can say is no pain!! I could tell the differance with the first dose. I suffered a sever leg cramp upon taking third dose not sure if its the drug but if it is I'm not giving up the drug will have to find something for legs!!

Took 1 7.5mg/day for a month; upped to 2/day for 2 weeks; now utilizing as needed. Went 30 hrs. Right shoulder extremely weak and painful with possible rotator damage--could barely move arm. Med enabled me to use arm more and more; now gained over 90% mobility and strength. Mild side effects, but concerned about continued useage.

Comment:
Took for swelling and pain after knee surery. After 2 30 days scripts I am still just as swollen. I have gained 15 lbs in the last 2 months, due to the steriods in this drug, (or at least thats what my MD thinks).
