"i had shoulder surgery 6 weeks ago and it helped me tremendously the first 5 days after my surgery. i had to take it regularly every 4-6 hours to help with the pain. it worked wonders. it made me nauseous if i didn&#039;t take with food and made me a little dizzy and light headed so no driving while on this medicine until you get used to it. other than that it was very helpful with my pain."
