Thanks

See more...

They're not for me, my wife has bad hips and has struggled the last 18 months, i bought her these without her knowing and she has only been taking them a short period of time but already has said theyre better than anything else she has taken over the last year.

Theyre an analgesics, a painkiller but not a inflamation drug. So they will not do anything in regard to swelling.

Tylenol do these also but theyre more expensive and the ingredients are the same!

I use Naproxen sodium capsules, 220mg for a knee injury i have thats awaiting operation. That works as a pain killer and reduces inflammation, ive been told its also very good for rheumatoid arthritis. I believe you can get these in the UK in 500mg from your doctor. May be worth enquiring about?
