has inflammation of the facial trigeminal nerve. is there medicine for this ## Hi clif, To my knowledge there are medications for nerve pain. However, I'm not sure whether or not they are specifically geared towards this particular facial condition. From what I've seen, Gabapentin or Lyrica are usually the general medications recommended by doctors for these types of conditions. Some people also suggest supplementing with a Vitamin B -Complex, as well as Turmeric, and Omega 3 fatty acids (DHA) for increased efficacy. You can learn more about each drug on the page for Gabapentin Details and Lyrica Details I hope this helps! ## my doctot put me on gapatin 800 mg 5mg of valium and tomapax it helps so much

Sorry about the problem that you and your husband are having. Have you tried any of the OTC medications to see if they help at their available dosages?

My dentist just gave me teva-naproxen but it's not effiecient. Last time, he gave me something else but I don't remember the name... It was a really small white coated pill with a black inscription on it. It's not a lot of information but it's all I remember. I'm almost sure it was an Anti-inflammatory or some kind of pain reliever used by dentists. ## Disperzyme tab. is prescribed by urologist as anti-inflamatory drug but can anyone tell me if it has to be taken before or after meals and how many in a day.

How long I can take this without abuse it for anti inflamatory ## Abusing a medication occurs when you keep taking more and more of it to get high, or because you like the effects it has on you, it is not the same as long term use, if you are taking it as prescribed. Meloxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and it can cause some problems with long-term regular use, such as stomach irritation, which could turn into ulcers and easier risk of bleeding, so you should consult your doctor on how long it is safe for you to use it.

I get gout. Whats better for keeping it down, naproxen 500mg or indomethacin 50mg? Also how much % of antinflamatory is in the naproxen 500mg? ## Because both of these medications are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), their effectiveness is going to depend upon a comparable dosage to one-another as well as the way your body responds to each medication. Personally, I would look into natural remedies (such as essential oils) as a treatment option, simply due to the fact that there are little or no side effects in comparison to pharmaceutical drugs. As to how much % of anti-inflamatory is in the Naproxen, I don't have an answer to that. Have you tried either of those medications yet to see how well each one helps?
