I have started with relafene a week ago. I got this therapy because of arthritis pain that I suffer. Id like to hear more about experiences with this medication from patients that used it. Does it give the relief from arthritis pain? For how long should it be used? Thanks in advance.

Relafen belongs to group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, like ibuprofen and diclofenac but is more powerful. It is the only drug in this group that can be used once a day because works long enough. I am on 1000mg of Relafen and it is not recommended to take more than 2000mg per day, even in split doses. Relafen is potent pain and inflammatory reliever. Its effect can be noticed after the first dose, but it does not have effect on the development of disease.
