Yes! My Nurse Practitioner gave me a prescription for 150mg of it. I took 2 pills at night before bed. It worked! Then after the prescription ran out, my Primary Doctor tried to lower my dosage to the 75mg pills. They were useless! He would not renew the 150s! Thanks a lot. Eventually, the NP renewed the inital prescrip of 150s. She had no problem with renewing it. Go figure.

@jacksonb1959 any side effects?

@jacksonb1959 I have the research evidence to show that at 150 mg per day it’s pain control is no better than the placebo used in the test. It has to be at least 300 my per to be effective.
