"i am currently taking this medication for moderate pain reduction. i hurt my wrist by falling on concrete stairs. it does reduce the pain and works very well. the only downside is stomach upset, nausea, and extreme sleepiness. i do not have any kind of narcotic tolerance. this medicine is for minor to moderate relief of pain, and should be used as such. this medicine in my book scores a 8 out of 10 points for managing moderate pain. highly recommend."
