I wanted to add that Swanson's Fibromyalgia Relief works the best of the 3 I mentioned. So, if you are thinking of trying these, definitely start with that one first.

thanks for the tip on this natural, inexpensive product @Mya Symons !

Can the Swanson's Fibro homeopathic formula be used "as needed" or does it take regular use to get effects?

I only get fibro symptoms when I over do things, occasionally.

Sorry. I know this is an old post and I did not reply yet. For some reason I did not get a notice of a post like I usually and did not see it. Yes, it can be taken at anytime and works for the pain. However, I stopped taking this for pain because my husband developed an ulcer. This was the only medicine he was using for Fibromyalgia at the time. However, some people with FMS lose their appetite for awhile and he was not eating much at the time. I am not sure I would recommend this product anymore, though.
