[|Human|] I have long lasting spine degenerative disease , in cruciating pain for years . The only medication that relief my pain is diprofos injections . I wan to know how frequent can I take it IM with least side effects of the streroid . I looked it in the drug web site dosage and there is no specific dose and the only warning if you take it too much it will cause all the side effects of steroids that we all know.
[|AI|]  PLS DON'T CONTINUE ON STEROIDS FOR LONG.TRY TAKING Chat Doctor. PAPAL(tapantadol 50 MG)three times a day if severe pain. That should be taken only as a short term for 2-3 times for severe pain. The dose is 1ml(7 mg) diluted with 10 ml normal saline. If u take too much it will definitely cause all the steroid side effects where u have severe gastritis, steriod myopathy, weakness of bones n easy susceptibility for fractures etc.
