My 90 year old father recently began taking Instaflex to relieve some of his pain from siatica, but after a couple weeks, he complains that he now has severe pain in his lower back and left leg. Is there any reason elderly should refrain from taking this medication?
Instaflex is not a solution to the problem. The pain can be due to stenosis or spasm or sciatica. It can be confirmed only after your meet an orthopedic or physiotherapist. Instaflex won't harm him but if the purpose is pain then it's of no help. Plz visit your doctor ASAP
