"vicoprofen has helped me greatly for fibromyalgia, there is still pain i&#039;ll have but that&#039;s not going to cure it but its helped a lot. and i seem to have pretty good energy while taking it. i don&#039;t take more than prescribed so i don&#039;t believe everyone is at risk of becoming addicted to this medication. i have never had any bad side effects with this medicine either. i only took 7.5 mg four times daily which is average.  good luck you all. hope this post helps."
