| I am 53 years old and I am dealing with rheumatoid arthritis for 5 years now. Morning stiffness, joint pain, this is all something common to me now. Last time I was at the doctors, I was prescribed with Aleve. It helps a lot, but I still feel some symptoms. Should I talk to the doctor again, is it possible that Aleve doesnt work? |

| Aleve is medication used for dealing with rheumatoid arthritis. Unfortunately, there are some people that cannot be affected by Aleve at all. So, in these cases, some other medicaments must be used, such as penicilamin, immunosuppressive, cortico steroids, etc. You said that Aleve helps a bit, so there is some positive effect. But, I would not exclude the possibility that you belong to that small group of people that Aleve does not affect much. |
