What Is Relafen?
Relafen (nabumetone) is a prescription medication used to manage the pain, stiffness, and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which reduces the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain and swelling. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, most people experience meaningful relief and improved joint function.

Is Online Relafen Treatment Right for You?
Relafen (nabumetone) may be appropriate for adults diagnosed with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis who need ongoing relief from joint pain and inflammation. Candidates are typically adults who have not achieved adequate control with over-the-counter pain relievers and require a prescription NSAID for continued management.
Because NSAIDs like nabumetone can affect gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and kidney health, your physician will review your full medical history, including any history of stomach ulcers, heart disease, kidney problems, or other conditions, before prescribing this medication.

Frequently asked questions
Relafen (nabumetone) is FDA-approved for the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in adults. It helps relieve joint pain, swelling, and stiffness associated with these conditions.
Nabumetone is a prodrug that is converted in the body to an active metabolite called 6-MNA. This active form inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing the production of prostaglandins that cause pain, fever, and inflammation.
Relafen is typically taken once daily, with or without food. Your physician will determine the appropriate dose based on your condition, other medications, and medical history. Always follow your prescriber's specific instructions.
Common side effects include stomach upset, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, and headache. Like all NSAIDs, nabumetone carries risks of gastrointestinal bleeding, cardiovascular events, and kidney effects, especially with long-term use. Report any unusual symptoms to your doctor promptly.
Relafen is not appropriate for people with a history of serious allergic reactions to NSAIDs or aspirin, those who have had coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, or individuals with active gastrointestinal ulcers or bleeding. People with significant kidney or liver impairment or certain cardiovascular conditions may also not be good candidates.
Nabumetone can interact with blood thinners (such as warfarin), other NSAIDs, ACE inhibitors, diuretics, and certain other medications. It is important to provide your physician with a complete list of all medications and supplements you take before starting Relafen.
