Any kind of pain killers should not be taken for very long time. As you said for chronic pain you should try alternative therapy such as physiotherapy, yoga relaxation etc for your wife.

No pain killer is safe for your age, at the max you can take it for 5 -7 day but not more than that. For further queries please consult online.
