Pain
"I was prescribed Darvocet (generic) for menstrual pain.  I have not found relief using any other medication, and asked for an alternative to Pamprin (and Aleve) from my doctor out of desperation, because I have missed a lot of school due to menstrual issues.  She prescribed Darvocet.  It works very well, but only for about an hour or two.  There are no side effects for me (at least, none that I can tell), and as long as I have a small snack with it, there is no stomach upset.

The lower rating is simply for the short time of effectiveness.  Otherwise, this isn&#039;t bad."
