For me it was Plaquenil. And steroids at the beginning.

That is a difficult one to answer because of the how the pain manifests itself. I mainly experience pain in the form of bursitis and tendonitis in episodic inflammation flair ups. I have a background medication of daily hydroxychloroquine. Sometimes Tylenol with caffeine has worked. Recently, I have been using a topical CBD balm which greatly helped inflammation in my ankle tendonitis. Prednisone dose packs have helped but makes those around me run for the hills because of my irritability.

Hope you find what works for you.
