#medication #NSAID #arthritis #pain management

I was prescribed Orudis 75mg Capsules for arthritis pain, and while they helped with the inflammation, I experienced some worrying side effects. I want to share my experience and hear from others who have taken this medication. What side effects have you encountered? Did you manage to reduce or eliminate them? What advice would you give to someone considering Orudis?

I'd be cautious about Orudis if you have a history of kidney issues. High potassium levels can cause serious problems, and kidney function is something to keep an eye on while using NSAIDs.

I had a bad reaction to Orudis—developed a rash all over my body. It was dreadful and took weeks to clear up. I've since learned that skin reactions can be a sign of something more serious, like Stevens-Johnson syndrome, so If you notice a rash, it’s important to get medical help right away.

I was on Orudis for a few months and ended up with a rash. I thought it was just an allergic reaction at first, but it got really bad. I eventually went to the ER and they said it could have been Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Scary stuff.

I switched from Orudis to a different NSAID after experiencing severe stomach pain and vomiting. If you're considering this medication, be aware that gastrointestinal issues are common. That's the first time I've had a drug where I needed to quit so abruptly. It's worth looking into alternatives if you experience any of these symptoms.

NSAIDs can be tough on your liver and kidneys. I know someone who had severe liver issues from taking Orudis for too long. Just be aware of the risks and keep an eye on everything.

I've been on Orudis for a while and haven't had any major issues, just some mild stomach upset. I find it really helps with my joint pain, so I stick with it. Just make sure to talk to your doctor about any concerns and remember to report side effects.

I've been on it for a while and I love it. It helps with the arthritis pain and I haven't had any side effects yet. I just heard this stuff is tough on your stomach, so I take it with food.
