Indication
YSP is used to treat pain or inflammation caused by arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis. YSP is in a group of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). YSP works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body.

If you take YSP for a long period of time, your liver function may need to be checked with blood tests on a regular basis. Do not miss any scheduled visits to your doctor.
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at your next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine. Symptoms of a YSP overdose may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, drowsiness, black or bloody stools, coughing up blood, shallow breathing, fainting, or coma.
