User Comments about Nimesulide
16 Oct 2015 Pain controlled.....lowered prescription, because I had trouble sleeping. I was taking 4-6 100mg a day for pain after extensive dental work. Lowered to 2 100mg after 3 days for a total of 8 days.

19 Jan 2009 I wish this drug was available in the US. It is a very popular drug in the rest of the world. I know it was a taken off the shelves in a few countries for some kidney problems that might have been caused in young children and others by it, so I am sure it will never make it here, but it is an effective pain killer if taken moderately, maybe not every day. The sachets of powder are way more effective for the migraines than the pill form, in fact, the pills don't work, only the powder form does, I found. Can't believe that overseas, I could get 30 powder packets for the equivalent of $6 and here in the US I pay $700 for 30 Imitrex pills for migraines - it's insanity! Especially, when this drug is quite effective against them.
