I'm on nabumatone. It's an NSAID (i know that everyone can't take that because of stomach concerns) but it's an OLD drug, side effects are minimal and the long term effects are really well understood so they know exactly what to screen for over the long haul.

Works for me. I'm not willing to change too much as it has been very stable for years.
