Have you tried splitting your dose? There are a lot of threads in this forum about that. You could try taking 15 mg in the morning and 5 in the late afternoon, or some other combination. Taking the second dose later in the day might help you get through the night without pain. If that doesn't work your dose might be too low. My brother-in-law started at 30 mg.

Thanks Jeff,
I'll definitely reach out to my Rheumatologists on splitting the dosages.
Hopefully we can come up with the right cocktail.
