REPORT

Although Melfen is not manufactured in the US, I did find that Ibuprofen is the active ingredient in Melfen.

Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug used for relief of symptoms of arthritis, primary dysmenorrhea, fever, and as an analgesic.

For more information about Ibuprofen, please refer to the link below...

@Padraic,

This medication is used for relief of symptoms of arthritis, primary dysmenorrhea, fever, and as an analgesic. I wouldn't count on using it solely for a flu treatment as it is not specifically for that. It may be able to subside some of the symptoms of a flu, such as a fever; but I have my own doubts as to whether it would do the full job. I would suggest looking around for something else geared more towards your needs.

Please post back if you have any other questions or concerns.

I had pain in my shoulder that travelled down my arm, around my shoulder bone on my back and up into my neck. It sounds very like what you described. I have just come out of hospital having had surgery for calcification (calcium build up in my shoulder) also a small piece of my shoulder bone had to be chipped away as it was shredding my tendon, so my small and large tendons had to be separated. Because of all of this my shoulder was also frozen. Prior to my operation I was awake all night every night in pain, I was very weepy and cranky from lack of sleep and pain. I could hardly move my arm at all, movement was only barely possible in a forward motion. My MRI scan only showed up a small calcium build up thankfully I had an excellent surgeon who rather than give me another round of IV's into the shoulder, simply took me in for surgery. Surgery entailed an overnight hospital stay with 4 incisions for micro surgery in my shoulder front and back. That was done yesterday and while still painful, it is painful in a healing way.

I hope this is helpful to you.

I was prescribed melfen for arthritis of upper back, but I had to give it up as I got serious depression and felt like I had the absolutely most horrible hangover type feeling.... But the pain got much better!

Melfen is an NSAID. Yes it does work for a while, but beware these drugs can and do erode cartilage therefore exacerbating the very disease it is meant to ease.
I know three people all of whom have either rheumatoid arthritis or osteo arthritis...they were prescribed several NSAIDs, and they have worsened the problem.
I have been prescribed them also, I'm in chronic pain 24/7, but I try not to take them. There must be some other less harmful meds that taken long term do not damage the body.
