I have a serious problem, /fit/.

What is the best non-prescription medication for Rheumatoid Arthritis? I have tried Aleve, Excedrin, Tylenol, and nothing seems to be as beneficial as I had hoped. The pain that I am experiencing is usually a flash or jolt of pain in my lower back, and hands; occasionally the legs, knees, and elbows. It's sudden, yet alleviates in a short twenty-odd minutes, but is prone to coming back worse after such time has elapsed.

I have been to a Doctor, but alas my insurance had run out before the testing could pin-point what exactly I had. The wheel had stopped, and unfortunately it landed on RA. So, now I am left trying desperately to overcome the pain with non-prescription medication, as I cannot afford anything else.

Sorry, man. Would help if could. You could try plain old Aspirin/ASA as it has a slightly different mechanism of action from naproxen (Aleve) and acetaminophen.
Other than that IDK poppy tea for making your own opiates? Sound good?

Also, I forgot that you're not european (or at least are in the UK) so you might try codeine, e.g. aspirin/acetaminophen w. codeine (which is controlled in most countries). That's another completely different mechanism of relieving pain. Don't know if/how it works because I have no personal experience.

Lastly, you could try double-dosing. I looked it up once and at least ibuprofen (Advil) is sometimes used in four to eight times the normal daily dose. Do some research for every drug before trying though.
