I thought the first time I did too. It's a proactive drug since it's main property is anti-inflammatory. So on my desk nights, or during summer on heavy haul days, if I take some right when I sit down for the night, it reduces the stiffness and pain by maybe 25%. It still hurts, but not as much. Might be all in my head, dunno, but popping asprin or advil is probably much worse for me.
I guess I need to start growing my own meadowsweets to make painkillers.
