What a godsend after suffering for many years with awful menstrual cramps. It is the only thing that worked for me, you just have to start taking it early on.

Doctors please read! This is NOT a medication to relieve arthritis pain. It initially put me to sleep and upon wakening I was in more pain than I was when I took it. Additionally it gave me an upset stomach.

I find that acuflex works for me better than stronger meds for pain. I have been using it also to prevent the flu when symtoms occur and so far it's the best but have to research more for side effects so far I had none.

i took this medication for painful periods, and the next day i woke up with numbness and tingling from the waist down to my feet, i had been in and out of emergency rooms and all the doctors could tell me is that they didnt what was going on and this happened 07/15/09 and im still having numbness although it's seem to be getting better because now it's only from my knees down to my feet. so i would just BEWARE!!!.DOCTORS DON'T ALWAYS KNOW WHAT THERE TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!

I find acuflex has little or no effect on spinal stenosis for which it was prescribed
