• Apply warm or cold compresses: Use ice packs to reduce acute joint swelling or warm compresses to soothe stiff muscles alongside your medication.
• Watch your salt intake: If you have high blood pressure, limit your sodium intake, as NSAIDs can sometimes cause your body to retain fluids.

• Take Betagesic SR 75mg Tablet PR with food, milk, or an antacid if it causes mild stomach discomfort.
