    I was perscribed this for heavy and painful periods. The first time I took it, a few days later I started to have severe side effects including pain when swallowing, pain in my stomach and overall extreem discomfort. When I called my doctors office about these side effects (because it says to contact your doctor immedialty) they told me it was just heart burn. I stopped taking the pills as soon as I started to get the side effects but I still had them for a week (durring my whole honeymoon, it ruined it). I couldn't eat without severe pain and had problems sleeping because of the pain. I will never take this medication again. I'd rather have the cramps than that pain. Published: March 11, 2008 ::

    Comment from: 19-24 Female on Treatment for 5-10 years (Patient)

    I have debilitatingly painful, heavy periods that over the counter pain relievers do not relieve. It was so bad that I sometimes had to miss school/work because of the pain. I was first given birth contol, which did not work and my body did not react well to, so I was prescribed Meclofenamate about 6 years ago. Works like a charm- if I take it right away, I actually have pain-free periods. It even slows down flow and all that fun stuff. Amazing little pill. Published: November 30, 2007 ::
