Well, certainly there is a vast amount of different medications that are available out there for pain. I like Tylenol extra strength personally, never take more than 3000 grams a day. Doing so could damage your liver. 4000gr or 8 tabs 500mg each can be taken short term. Personally, i I like Soma(carisoprodol is generic) for muscle spasm or Flexeril(cyclobenzaprine is generic).
As far as prescription pain meds go, that would depend on whether or not you needed a strong pain reliever or a NSAID(non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication like Advil, Motrin,Celebrex,Toradol,Mobic,Daypro,Relafan.
Narcotic pain relievers would be like Lortab(hydrocodone)OxyContin,Percocet,Darvocet,Darvon, or Ultram.
I think Percocet is a great pain reliever as well as Lortab. But they are narcotic and you can build up tolerance and develop physical and psychological dependence with long term usage. I would advise seeing your doctor and letting him make a determination about your physical condition and what mode of treatment is best for you. Good luck!

Depends on what is wrong. If you have an inflammation of the shoulder and anti inflammatory etc You need to go to a doctor and get a diagnosis and the correct pain killer

Never. Only time I ever use any pain relief is when I go to the dentist and they have to freeze my gums.

everybody's different. Some medicines work for some people and don't work for others.

Advil Gel Capsules seem to work miracles for me.
