Hi Deborah,

Thank you for your question. You should consult with your doctor before taking any new medication to determine whether or not it's the right medication for you. There is a warning against using Relafen in patients with liver disease (including hepatitis). If you'd like to read more about Relafen (generic name nabumetone), you can do so here.

Best of luck,

Casey

Thank you for your input
