I have sciatica and I have found that Aleve (naproxin sodium) works better than anything for me. Long term use will take a toll on your GI tract but ingesting with food and using it only when needed can help to ward off gatric problems. Of course everbody is different and Aleve may not buy you any relief but of all the NSAIDS I have used, Aleve is my anti-inflam of choice. Hope this helps.
