YMMV but Etodolac didn't have much of an effect. That's we stopped it.

Advice & Tips

It's a good arthritis pain treatment, but, as an adjunct to my Crohne's Disease treatments, it's lacking, and may be making it worse.

Advice & Tips

While etodolac did not provide any pain relief from my sciatica, I would like to note that as far as I know it has less side effects on the stomach than most other NSAIDS. Therefore, if you want to try taking an NSAID for sciatica, or for other purpose, I would surely give etodolac a priority over other NSAIDS.
