I have been recommended Etoshine 120 by my doctor for my severe muscular pain in my hip to my knee region. However, I'm having irregular heart beats, hallucinations, difficulty breathing and drowsiness after each dose. My doctor told me there are no side effects of this medicine but every time I take it the symptoms are too much to bear... I'm not even able to breath. ## All medications carry the risk of causing side effects. This medication is used to treat pain, fever, and swelling. The NIH lists the most common side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, flatulence, and increased blood pressure. Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications?

My doctor prescribed Etoshine tablets for my spinal pain, my C5 and C6 are bulged. Is this medicine the only pain killer or cure for the disease? Please advise as I am very confused and in a lot of pain. ## This is a Cox2 Inhibitor, meaning it basically works a powerful anti-inflammatory and is commonly prescribed for these types of conditions. Most herniated discs clear up by themselves over time, your doctor is trying to get the inflammation to go down, so they will slip back where they belong. ## Complete cure is sometimes could not possible. This depends on your age. In the earlier stage of the problem, this medicine helps to cure along with someother precaustions (like physio theropy, excercises, yoga). If the problem is a chronic one chances are less. ## DR PRESCRIBED ETOSHINE 120...
