I read a post the other day about someone asking about pain meds, but now I can't find it. I found out about a med called Nulev Hyoscyam that a friend of mine is taking for pain. She puts one on her tongue when the pain starts and lets it melt there and it takes most of the pain away. Tastes like mint, she said. Don't know anything else about it. Someone else mentioned SamE for pain management.

Hi! I have had Nulev prescribed for me. I believe it is a form of Levsin, but faster-acting. It does taste like mint! Also, you don't necessarily have to put it under your tounge; as soon as you put it in your mouth it will dissolve. For me, it seems to work fairly well if I take them before I am in situation where I would be having an attack. However, if I am extremely nervous, or am in the middle of an attack, I haven't found them to be helpful. However, if anyone is taking Levsin, I would definitly recommend talking to your doctor about Nulev. For additional information check out the website:
Nulev

Good Luck!
