For Pain "I was very surprised when I took this medicine. I took it at 9 PM, and by 9:30, I was in bed sleeping. It's a high-power pill, and I rested all night. It's a good pill besides the fact that I woke up the next morning and barely could get up and get dressed for work because I was still sleepy from the pill. It finally wore off at about 10 AM. It helped me a lot. I was told by a friend to take it for pain, and I'm glad I got it."

For Pain "I have taken this medication for pain in my foot due to gout. Nothing else I bought over the counter worked. I read the bottle and decided to try it. It eased my pain more than I ever thought an over-the-counter medicine could. The only thing to be aware of is it makes you sleepy and drowsy. But it works!"

For Pain "The best for back pain, cramps. It does make you sleepy, so don't drive. Helps you sleep when you're in pain. I have been taking it for years. LOVE IT!"
