| Yesterday the Medical Officer of the American Medical Body gave the green light to the new drug VOLTAREN for arthritis.This is in tablet or gel form. Not sure if this is an over the counter medicine or not.It is being hailed as a super drug for this complaint. |

Just googled this up. One might want to check this out pretty well before gulping down a few tabs.

I'm looking for an aide for my malady too, but I believe I'll check with the Doc before I indulge. But you folks know I'm a scaredy cat anyway.

Really good stuff, but...
I took this for a few years, back in the late 80's and/or early 90's, mainly for degenerative disc disease in my neck. It's the best arthritis drug I've ever taken, bar none. The down side - it was eating at my stomach and I had an ulcer. Had to quit it. There's some great drugs out there, however the stronger they are, the more they will eat at your stomach. Maybe some day there will be a miracle drug.
