Does anybody know whether Femoston conti taken for almost 10 years may cause sciatica? I have reduced the dosage to half a tablet/day since 2 months and my chronic sciatica feels better.

Thanks

    It depends what sciatic pain or symptoms you are getting. Have you had it officially diagnosed and tested as to the origin or your sciatica? Do you know that it is sciatic? On a quick read, this medication can cause leg cramping.

      I have arthritis and spondylolistesis, I cannot walk for more than 100 yds without experiencing intense sciatic pain. However, after two months of reduced femoston dosage, I feel better. However, this is summer and leg pain usually gets better in this season. I should wait until October to say that it is actually better

    That's really interesting as when I was pregnant with one of my children my pain was much better due to the hormones and before my period my pain is much worse due to hormones. Im going to see if my Dr will put me on them! Thanks
