Though not addictive it does require a taper though for safety if given more than a few days. but you probably already know that...
FYI - ami has the highest side effects in that drug class since it is first gen. I take nortriptyline, less side effects and I do find it helpful.

I can't take tramadol (was on it for my endo - didn't touch it and gave me awful GI upset) and with all the ibuprofen I have taken over the past 18 months, my stomach is over it...I'm on prilosec now because of constant heartburn/nausea/vomiting. NSAID's are not in my future.
I had fair relief while under my last ortho's care. Alas, I consumed my last lortab in November (from a script written for 50 tabs in August)
