OT: NSAID

[Guest guest]

I have used Relafen for the last few years and have found it effective, with

relatively few side effects. I just use it once a day or once every second day

since I am sensitive to medications, but right now I'm in a flare and want to

use an anti-inflammatory for a while, but one of the NSAIDS that is easier on

the stomach. Unfortunately, my pharmacist said that Relafen is no longer made.

I have tried the generic, Nabutemone, several times, but have found side

effects, including extreme fatigue and possibly some lightheadedness. Does

anyone know of another good NSAID that is not too hard on the stomach and causes

few side-effects? I don't want to use a cox 2-inhibitor.

Thanks,

I second this request... this tells me a lot... I am currently on

Nebutomene and I gotta tell ya, I sleep an incredible amount and at the

most incredibly inopportune times... Any other ideas would be

helpful... Thanks ya'll...
