| my_mother's Full Review: Extra Strength Bayer Arthritis Pain Regimen |
One of the pitfalls of old age is that sometime you can't do the things you really want to do. Arthritis is sometimes so debilitating that all you want to do is sit still and not move. You don't want to vacuum, make the bed, go for a walk, cook dinner, play cards, or any other activity that could make the pain worse. I almost said that you don't want to wash the dishes but actually the warm water can feel real good at times.
Extra Strength Bayer Arthritis Pain Regimen, when used as directed, helps relieve then pain so activities can be attempted. The active ingredient is aspirin which, as far as I'm concerned, is still the best form of pain relief on the market. Each tablet is safety coated so it doesn't dissolve in your stomach but rather waits until it gets in your intestines thereby avoiding any stomach upset. Senior citizens already have enough problems with their digestion so another factor causing discomfort isn't something looked forward to. The tablets are caffeine free and sodium free. I thought the part about low sodium was particularly important especially if you are suffering from high blood pressure.
One thing I want to mention. In reading the consumer information about Extra Strength Bayer Arthritis Pain Regimen, they note that you should not take this medication to get relief for fever or headaches because it takes so long to dissolve and get to the problem. When you have fever or headache you should use another product that will get to the cause of the problem fast!
Don't expect total relief every day for every waking hour. There will be times when it just doesn't seem to go away. What Extra Strength Bayer Arthritis Pain Regimen will do for you if allow you to attempt to do some of those things that you have already given up. Just make sure you follow the directions on the bottle.
