Dear Friend.
Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
These tablets have very high addictive potentials.
For joint pains , arthritis related issues , i personally prefer to use Tab Tramadol , that too on as when required basis.
You may discuss with your doctor about prescribing Tramadol.
