I had horrible pain in my feet to where I couldn't hardly walk. After being on this med at 600mg 2x daily, I can walk again. I had no side effects except for being sleepy, so I just take it at night now. Published: October 29, 2008 ::

Husband took the generic of Daypro for about 1 month and was feeling better, no pain in legs, sleeping better and everything, then woke up one morning with severe chest pains and had a widowmaker heart attack and almost died. Was told by Doctor that the drug triggered the heart attack. Published: October 24, 2008 ::

Comment from: 45-54 Female on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)

I don't think anything short or surgery is going to help, but out of all the NSAID s I've taken this seems to be working better than the others without the stomach upset and the constant nausea of the other drugs like Naproxen or Relafen. Published: April 04, 2009 ::

Comment from: KT, 45-54 Female on Treatment for 1-6 months (Patient)

I suffered from extreme pain in both hips and knees. The pain is almost completely gone after taking one month. I have gained my life back. Side effects, however are not good. Frequent morning headaches, stomach aches, and diarrhea. Right now, for me, it is still worth taking- even with the side effects. Published: December 24, 2008 ::

Comment from: Jim E, 55-64 Male on Treatment for 10+ years (Patient)

I am a 55 year old male and have been taking daypro for almost 10 years. Carpal tunnel sysmtoms are completely stopped with this medicine. I can miss one dose and feel the pain. I've had no side effects that were detrimental to this drug. Has allowed me many hours of pain relief and a more normal day to day living. Arthritis in hands is getting worse now. My doctor is changing me to Mobic. Hopefully it will work as well as daypro. Published: November 13, 2008 ::

Comment from: Aly, 55-64 Female on Treatment for 1-6 months (Patient)

Rumey gave it to me for disc problems with nerve compression. drug made me dizzy and unstable. PT and yoga helped more than anything. I do not like taking this drug. Does help somewhat with pain. Side effects are not worth it for me. Published: October 21, 2008 ::
