| Add Mobic review After only 4 tabs I began to experience more swelling in the hands burning pain up my left arm, shoulder and across my chest. MY BP which runs in the 120's over high 60's shot up to 160's over 80's to 90's and persisted for several days after discontinuing usage. I have arthritis in my right knee due to a previous surgery. I am overweight and trying to lose, but while walking, the knee pain flailed up again. Dr prescribed to reduce pain and swelling. After a week, I started to itch all over, my tongue feels puffy and I'm going to the bathroom ALOT! I called my pharmacist and she told me to stop taking it cause I was having a really bad reaction! Plus, the ... seems to help with the pain , but makes me sick had to stop med My reaction to this medication: Red flushing of skin on face and chest after first dose. I was told to discontinue use. | Add Vioxx review no advirse troubles when using this drug. I had relief and was able to move much better. I have a variety of back issues, arthritis, etc and nothing has worked like Vioxx. I wish something was as effective but now I take Vicodin for the pain, which I really hate to do. When I was on vioxx,Oral, I had no problems. It eased my pain (lower back disc) and I was very upset that it went off the market. Since then, I have been given less than adaquate drugs for my back. I wish they would do more studies with more people than just a few complainers before stripping medicine that works for most than just the few. I say do another study and stop cry babies that just want to make a buck. | |||
