I've been on Arthrotec 50 for over 10 years on and off, only taking it when I needed it.
Due to my arthritis getting progressively worse, to the point where I am in tears with the agony, gp's started me on 75 twice a day and I have to take it.
every day for the next month to see how I get on, here goes.
So far its been very good, pains almost gone, but I feel a bit weird, didn't have that when on 50. | Somnolence,Vision blurred,Gastrointestinal disorder,Malaise |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | heartburn, nausea, frequent feelings of voracious hunger & sharp unbearable cramping pains in lower gut.
Did not seem to make a lot of difference to the pain it was supposed to be treating.
Stopped taking it after 13 days, prefer the pain in my forearms. | Dyspepsia,Nausea,Increased appetite,Abdominalpain lower |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | Constipation right from the start and in ladt 4 weeks extreme joint pain at night (just few hours after taking tablets).
Pain so bad it disrupted my sleep co pletely.
also, extreme itching on legs and arms, so bad I scrathced myself raw.
mobility has DECREASED rapidly, especially when trying to go down stairs.
Was warned about possibility of constipation but think doctor underestimated how severe it would get.
Arthrotec was supposed to ease my pain not make it worse.
Have stopped taking and immediatedly muscle/joint pain eased and sleeping much better.
Have reverted to use of co-codamol to ease symptoms as required. | Constipation,Arthralgia,Pain,Pruritus,Mobility decreased,Constipation,Myalgia,Arthralgia |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | I am menstruating with heavy bleeding every 11 days.
Honestly, I can't figure out how I can lose this much blood and still function.
I have horrific cramps to begin with, so I can't say whether arthrotec increased that.
I have endometriosis, so I'm not sure if that is something that doesn't agree with arthrotec.
It did help with the pain I experience with the pinched nerve, but it is not worth it to me to continue. | Heavy menstrual bleeding,Muscle spasms |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | It began with stomach pain,then slight nausea, then reflux each time I took a pill.
After the second pill the same progression of symptoms only now the abdominal gas,cramps and pain would be with me all day.
I stopped pills but abdominal cramps persist.
The only good thing I can say about Arthrotec is that I did notice pain relief but I won't put up with the side effects on a daily basis since I spent a long time getting rid of a reflux problem in the past.
The abdominal gas,cramps and discomfort are another thing I don't want to see get worse if I keep taking Arthrotec.
I've taken Tylenol 3 and never had a problem like this.
Perhaps there is something not right yet with Arthrotec. | Abdominal pain upper,Nausea,Abdominal pain,Flatulence,Abdominal discomfort |

Had high BP for another 10 days, before it came back down to normal, and pulse is still extremely high 3 weeks after stopping the medicine.
I only took for 7 days, and it caused this much problems.
Never again, I would not recommend this to use.
I have had 2 trips back to dr, since this happened and a third visit due to the tachycardia is schedule in 3 more days.
I will not use anymore. | Headache,Hypertension,Heartrate increased,Tachycardia |

I have tried and tried to take the day dose - but I would rather live without the sickness - its just too awful.
very painful joints - but with this tablet, the pain is much much reduced.
If I miss a couple of days I really know about it.
If I could find the same sort of thing without the EXTREME nausea - I would switch drugs in teh blink of an eye. | Vomiting,Ill-defined disorder,Nausea |

Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | Initially, I experienced a slight, but noticeable difference in pain level: the pain was less severe.
Within a few days, I noticed acid reflux shortly after taking, and it got progressively worse.
It got to the point that I was apprehensive about going to bed; I consistently found myself waking up with acidic bile in my mouth, tasting like I had thrown up. | Gastrooesophageal reflux disease,Gastrooesophageal reflux disease |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | Particularly diahrea!
Many unscheduled washroom stops over the time I've taken this medication.
Lately ankle swelling and lower tendon pain that was not experienced previously.
Males tend to tolerate this medication better than women from my observation.
This medication helped get me back to work and achieve tolerable pain levels and mobility.
I stopped taking it for 4 days and the pain returned.
Currently take one 75mg dose 2 hours before work and seems to be enough to ease my particular condition.
Probably alright for otherwise healthy individuals but those with other medical problems should probably avoid it.
It will most likely exacerbate there ill health with unwelcome side effects. | Diarrhoea,Joint swelling,Tendon pain |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | I was prescribed this drug because I had spent a whole night in complete agony; abdominal pain, lower back pain, all that I imagine labor pain to be, except I was not in labor.
Though the cause of my pain remains undetermined, the Arthrotec combined with Paracetamol pretty much eliminated the pain.
This was a big relief, as the 1200 MG of Ibuprofen I had taken throughout the night had done nothing.
I only took 1 Arthrotec and 1 Paracetamol and that did the trick.
HOWEVER: I had a very bad headache yesterday and Ibuprofen again didn't work.
I still had the other Arthrotec pills left, so I took one.
Although it alleviated the pain, I got up this morning with heavy vaginal bleeding even though my period ended last week.
I was relieved to read that this could be a side effect, as it means I probably don't have something serious, but I will have to be in some serious pain to risk bleeding from the vagina again.
Next time I'll try my luck with Paracetamol.
The pill I took consisted of 50 MG Diclofenac and 200 MG Misoprostol. | Headache,Vaginal haemorrhage |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | just took the drug about 30 minutes ago and am now experiencing the worst abdominal pain ever, like mentstrual cramps/diarreah cramping combined.
i had to keep dropping into a crouched position due to the severity of the lower abdominal pain.
i was put on this medication because i was taking such high doses of Advil to quell the inflammation in my neck and back muscles that it caused me to have a GI bleed.
but after this little episode, and after reading that it can cause heavy menstrual bleeding, i highly doubt this drug is the best fit for my problem!!
i already have anemia due to the gastric bleed.
how could my doctor not think of this?
i'm also starting to feel dizzy and light headed, and can feel acidic bile at the back of my throat.
great!!

An absolute miracle drug for me.
None of the stomach issues others seem to have.
I was at the point where I was becoming highly immobile and in constant pain.
Started taking arthrotec and had IMMEDIATE relief.
honestly never thought I would feel that way again.
recently pain has started to increase though, and not sure if I've overworked my back.
or if I'm becoming intolerant.
Have recommended to two others who have had similar exceptional results for chronic arthritic type issues. | Heavy menstrual bleeding |

Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | I have taken 6 pills in the past (75mg each), but the side effect I had from my last pill was awful.
It induced severe vaginal cramps without bleeding about 2 hours after I took the medication.
I ended up having to take additional medication to get rid of the cramps (pamprin) so that I could sleep.
Sat on the bathroom for 30 minutes.
If I knew I would have went to bed with a sore knee instead - it hurt less than the cramps.
This is the only anti-inflammatory drug that helps for my knee pain/inflammation and its reliable in that.
I take it infrequently, once every several months and 1 pill is often enough for me. | Genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder,Muscle spasms |

Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | After taking the drug for 7 years, i've suddenly developped diarrhea, nausea, loss of apetite, stomach cramps.
I've had these symptoms for 4 weeks and i've just realised it could be side effects from arthotec.
The problem is if i stop arthrotec I become paralysed by back pain.
Seeing the doctor next week.
But not sure if my symptoms are due to the drug as i've been on it for so long with no side effects.
After trying several NSAIDs with side effects, I finally discovered arthrotec which relieved the pain and no side effects.
I usually take 1 or 2 a day and when the pain gets really bad increase it to 3 a day for one or two weeks. | Diarrhoea,Nausea,Decreased appetite,Learning disorder |

I am on the birth control pill and should not have my period for another 3 weeks.
I am in so much pain that I cannot sleep, nor can I take Advil for the pain as it is also an NSAID.
The patient warning indicates that this drug can cause an abortion.
I wish I'd read my entire monograph before taking the tablet.
I would not recommend for women prior to menopause.
Nor sure why my doctor thought it would help my endo pain. | Dysmenorrhoea,Pain |

Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | vaginal bleeding and cramping 2 years after menopause.
While this helped some with the joint pain, I was unpleasantly surprised at the return of my period after 2 years.
I had severe endometriosis and adenomyosis all my life, plus the impairment in blood clotting due to EDS, so my doctor probably should not have prescribed this drug.
I'm not taking any more tablets.
Cymbalta 120 mg per day helps enough with the pain. | Vaginal haemorrhage,Muscle spasms |
Map Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) mentioned in the text to their corresponding MedDra terms, listing them as a comma-separated string. If no ADE is found, return "No ADEs". | I have been on Arthrotec for a year and a half and have been very pleased that it does help deal with my back pain.
However.
over the last six months, I have started having vaginal bleeding almost every day of the month.
Lots of clotting, and horrible periods.
I went to the obgyn and everything came out normal.
The doc put me on birth control.
But, the bleeding has not subsided.
So now I am scheduled to have an endometrial biopsy on Wed.
I had an ephiphany last night about Arthrotec and began researching the side effect.
When I came across this website, I was appalled that the majority of the females mention heavy/extra vaginal bleeding.
I firmly believe this is the answer to my bleeding problem and will be telling the doctor on Monday,.
Although this drug has helped with the pain, it is not worth the cost and hassle of bleeding constantly.,
On top of that, I am now having to have a procedure that a 31 year old should not have to endure.
I truly hope that there are no long term effects from this.
I have not taken Arthrotec in almost a week, yet I am still bleeding.
I do not look forward to the extra pains I will llkely experience in a couple weeks, but I am sure I can find something else to deal with them.
I feel that I have become dependent on this medicine to function. | Vaginal haemorrhage,Heavy menstrual bleeding,Haemorrhage, |

My menstrual cycle is completely out of whack, I'm bleeding several times a month.
Nausea occurs when I'm hungry - very odd.
Irregular cramping.
This has been to date the only medicine to relieve my hip pain, but it's affecting my quality of life.
Who wants to have their period all month long and be non-stop nauseous?!
If they ever fix the kinks I'll be the first in line, but at this point I don't consider this a safe medication. | Menstruation irregular,Nausea,Muscle spasms,Heavy menstrual bleeding,Nausea |

I had to leave work & go home sick.
I would much rather put up with my debilitating chronic knee pain (waiting for surgery) than to ever take another pill.

Hadn't realised it was related until I read this but I get the hunger pangs too, I'm assuming this is the acids and gas in your stomach constantly churning over that make you feel like you're hungry.
I've taken co-codamol for my fibromyalgia for many years which I have very few side effects with.
I've recently had this severe hip pain on both sides which the co codamol wasn't touching so I went back to the Dr He recommended this anti-inflamatory and as he said next stop would be cortozone injections I was willing to give it a try.
I've tried it for a week but it makes me feel dreadful.
Every time I stand up I have to hold onto something for fear of falling over, I feel sick and light headed and I get those waves of nausea where you suddenly feel all clammy.
It's very much like having a permanent hangover, even down to the hunger which until I read thsi site I hadn't connected to the rest of it.
I've felt no discernible difference in the pain in my hips and the side effects simply aren't worth it so thats it for me and this drug. | Dizziness,Ill-defined disorder,Flatulence,Chest discomfort,Abdomina lpain upper,Malaise,Fear of falling,Dizziness,Nausea,Cold sweat,Hunger |

I was given a 6 day trial of Arthrotec along with a 9 day trial of Aciphex on 4/25 (three bottles of three pills).
This was a solution my doctor came up with.
I've never had consistant heart burn or indigestion, no signs of acid reflux, so I was confused as to why he would offer me this medication.
The first day I took both pills, I experienced some dizziness and some nausea and some serious period like cramps.
I was at work, so I just had to brush it off.
It continued each time I took it.
After about two days (two doses), the cramps continued and began inhibiting my menstrual cycle (which I was due to start).
So, I googled the side effects of the drug, came across this site, and realized I wasn't the only one with those side effects, so I felt a little better about it.
On the evening of 4/30, I suddenly got some serious chest pains, an elevated heart rate (I was laying down with my husband and this was similar to an "I just finished running!" heart rate), hot flashes, dizziness, sever stomach cramps, and weakness in my legs.
I literally thought I was dying.
It passed within 45 minutes and I was able to go to work the next day.
At work (5/1), I was sitting at my desk and the same thing happened.
I stepped out to get some air but it didn't work.
A friend at work had to call an ambulance.
I was filled in by the ER doc that the mixture of Aciphex and Arthrotec was insane and that he was trying to keep from cracking up at my primary doc's decision to combine them. | Abdominal pain upper,Chest pain,Anxiety,Fatigue,Headache,Heart rate irregular,Bloodpressure increased,Dizziness,Nausea,Vision blurred,Dizziness,Uterine spasm,Muscle spasms,Tachycardia,Flushing,Learning disorder,Muscular weakness |
