I suffer chronic back pain, some days it's unbearable. I refuse to fall Slave to prescription medications. Robax Platinum is a great temporary solution to taking away some of the pain and letting me function like a normal human being.
Being a psw i have back problems all the time, i recieved a sample in the mail from the company, and they seemed to work ok. It did work as a muscle relaxer, but i still needed to take more of something else like advil or aleve, and some heat rub. I wouldnt say that these are worth how much they want for them.
I've been using this for years for my lower back pain, and it works great. Works even better when combined with another pain reliever like tylenol or advil. I have really bad back pain that usually ends up having me crying in pain, and I take 2 of these with some tylenol and I'm good for the night. Don't think I could do without this, this little pill is a life saver, especially being a single mom, I don't have the luxury of not being able to get up and move when needed.
The robax platinum was very efficace for my pain. I Will buy it in the futur when I Will need it, because it work fast. I recommended this product for everyone who as pain.
This works when combined with something else, Aleve or Tylenol or more ibuprofen. I find I need a little more pain medication in combination with the muscle relaxant , but when take together it's great , just not as good itself.
I tried this last night as I have hurt my lower back. I feel there wasnt enough advil in it (only 200mg and I take 400mg usually) but the muscle relaxant worked for a little bit- not all night. I will try again tonight to give it the benefit of the doubt, but so far I feel it doesn't work for a bad muscle strain....
Sorry, no good review here. I have had chronic back problems for years, long before lower back surgery in 96.
Still suffering, I would probably get more relief eating a jelly bean and for the friends and co-workers who have tried this product, there thoughts are similar to mine. I think they're nothing more than a Placebo. Save your money and wait it out, it will eventually get better on it's own. I find walking to be the most effective treatment and NO lifting or physical activity. A heating pad and massaging the affected area will also certainly help during the healing process. From past experience, I pretty much know that within 7-10 days it will take care of itself.
I really don't know what compensation some of these people receive for their reviews of if in fact the names are fictitious. If you really have no satisfaction with your own self administered treatment, I would suggest a prescription for Flexeril, it is a narcotic, they work but just be careful and only use when required. I will only use these as a last resort, which is very rare.
I got this as a sample in the mail and never thought I would use it until one day I through out my back and was in excruciating pain. I tried hot water bottle, advil, sitz baths and nothing was helping so i decided to try one and wow....this stuff is awesome! I almost had immediate relief within 15mins and the pain went away fully within a day. I don't know how often i'd really use this, but it will definitely be something I grab for if I have back pain again future
It worked like magic the first night I used it. My lower back gets very stiff and so painful by morning. The next night it didn't seem to work as good, but I tried it a third time and thought it did help quite a bit - so 4 out of 5 stars. I don't usually medicate for back pain, but needed something to get me through being on the road on business.
I have been using this product for years and it is the only thing that relieves my back pain. It is one of the most costly products, but it worth every penny if you have really bad back pain. It is always the first thing I go for.
