Naprelan Reviews
For Sciatica "I am currently taking Celebrex and Prednisone for my sciatica. Twelve days now and no relief. Desperate for pain relief, I took one Naproxen 500mg. Thank God I did. The pill is a little hard to swallow and it may make you a little nauseous, but it will definitely ease the pain and will allow you to get some much-needed sleep."
For Sciatica "Sciatica pain since June. In October, I started Naproxen 500, and there were obvious changes. I have no pain from my back to my calf, and I can stand for longer periods of time without pain and leg numbness. I am very happy."
For Back Pain "I went to see the doctor after 2 days of heat and inactivity did not help my back. After examining me and taking X-rays he prescribed the Naprelan 500mg time release for me. He also went as far as to warn me that even though I would feel better it was not healed and I needed to take it easy. I am so glad he did because after 2 days I felt almost back to normal even though the back condition was such that I am be referred to physical therapy for it. Long story short, this medicine works, just be careful."
For Pain "This drug was and is a godsend. I blew my knee out. Tried me on everything, including Vicodin. Did nothing. dr. Had samples of this tried, 2 days, heaven. I had to wait for knee replacement due to age. This worked better than Vicodin. 4 years later surgery. By then both knees and my Doctor messed up. Now on this 12 years. Now on SSI. No coverage $800.00 a month. Why? Worse they slowed down making it. All the bottles I have same lot number. All expired 2020. Even bottles filled few months before. This drug stopped me from having to take 10-325 Percocet. None of my pain Dr. heard of it. Pharmacist. I use to have bad migraines my whole life. I don’t recall any all these years on this drug. The lower dose did not work. But four 5-325 Percocet don’t work and one 10-325 does. God forbid when I run out. Why people end up on stronger meds. Best anti-inflammatory out there. ."
For Pain "I have suffered with right lower back pain for many years. I have taken Flexeril, Ibuprofen800, Percocet all of which dulled the pain or put me to sleep. My doctor put me on Naprelan and after two doses I am almost completely free of back pain."
For Back Pain "After severe lumbar pain caused by lugging a 5-gallon bucket full of dirt about 100 yards, I tried over-the-counter Doan's tablets and got no relief. Then, my physician gave me 4 Naprelan which I took one a day. In only six days total, my lumbar pain had vanished."
For Muscle Pain "I have MS and have been taking Naprelan CR 750 mg every morning for approx. 2 years, I take every morning and within minutes I can move. My Co-pay used to be $45, we changed health insurance and now it's $250 I don't know what I am going to do now. I cannot afford this."
For Period Pain "Works great for menstrual pain and doesn't hurt my stomach like other naproxen, as long as I take it on a full stomach. I take one and it works all day. Only draw back is the cost, so my doctor stocked me up on samples. Even with insurance it was outrageous."
For Headache "I have TMJ, and it was causing severe headaches. I was given Naprelan to take down the inflammation in my jaw. Within two days, I was feeling much better and could even open my mouth wider."
For Osteoarthritis "My Dr. prescribed Naprelan for me on March 10th. By March 12th, my condition had improved 85%!!! Ladybugluv"
For Osteoarthritis "Takes away swelling from knee post-surgery."
For Osteoarthritis "Works great. No noticable side effects. Cost is pretty high, but my insurance covers it."
For Muscle Pain "Works better after taking it a couple of days"
For Osteoarthritis "Works great. Love it."
For Osteoarthritis "Works GREAT. Take it once a day and I'm done. Cost is outrageous though."
For Sciatica "Naprelan is very reliable for all sorts of pains I have. I primarily use it for back pain or Stacia. I also use it for all body aches too."
