Avatar f tn advil is a minor anti inflammatory I have never heard of it prescribed for this before but it could help a little I suppose more widely prescribed for GM are some of the big anti inflammatories - particularly prednisone or methotrexate I did take Naproxen for some time, (months at a pretty high dose - it really attacks your stomach lining though so I went off), which I guess is a step up from advil, and is a non steroidal anti inflammatory (NSAID), can't say if it helped with the inflamma
Avatar m tn Next, I went on methylprednisolone which I think made my headaches even worse, but I finished the dosage and I'm still in a lot of pain. I have been living with severe headaches for 3 months now and I don't know what I can do to improve that. Every night I go to sleep and I just feel the veins in my head throbbing and throbbing and it hurts. I cannot tolerate the heat because when my body heats up the headaches get worse so I open the window to keep my body cold.
Avatar f tn I would be careful taking Advil PM as it has an antihistamine in it and might make RLS worse. I mistakenly took Nyquil with an antihistamine in it and had the shakes real bad. So be cautious..
Avatar n tn To my knowledge, accutane does not have drug interactions with the other medications that you are on. As a patient with MS, you can expect to have the same risks and side effects as other people on accutane, and these side effects and risks need to be discussed with you by your dermatologist before you start taking it. However, I would also run this by your neurologist who manages your MS just to make sure he/she feels that accutane may affect your MS in some way.
2202729 tn?1377551205 I agree with Pooh, take Tylenol. I think most hepatologists recommend it for liver patients, up to 2000 mg per day. NSAIDs (including Advil, Motrin, aspirin, pretty much every OTC pain-killer other than Tylenol) are contraindicated if you have liver disease.
1711722 tn?1356487554 Knowing that Flu like symptoms were a side effect, I did get a Flu shot in August, prior to tx. Today, right now, I really feel like I am fighting off a cold or Flu. Can I take something like Nyquil but without alcohol??? Thanks. Just took the day off sick yesterday, and don't want to be out tomorrow.
1116530 tn?1324913147 so with the doxy and the 3 advil, i would not want to take anything else. it is a weird/awkward procedure but it is not much worse than having a longer than usual exam/pap smear. you'll feel better if you are coherent and can understand what they are doing. they explain along the way and tell you what looks good/is normal as they go.

Avatar m tn I prefer the oral route for the convenience of not having to be tied to an IV, and the pill I take is Decadron. The version I take is made at a compounding pharmacy that my neurologist is confident will make the drug right. Their pharmacist puts into one capsule the drug that is equivalent to 25 prednisone tabs. It is much easier on the stomach. You can read more about it at: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.
1394601 tn?1328032308 shell, I have to take the Rebif mornings or it interferes with my sleep. I also have to take the oxycodone/acetaminophen in the morning or I can't move. ess. I am thinking along the same line...that the acetaminophen is enough. I was fine yesterday. And yes, the less medication the happier I am!! Just hoping it doesn't backfire on me.. Thanks to both of you for responding. I just wondered how others have handled it....
Avatar f tn As some of you know I suffer from severe health anxiety...I started going through a particularly bad time last fall...I am constantly afraid of headaches,fevers,muscle aches etc..as a result of this I started taking advil constantly and I am up to about 10 to 12 liquigels a day..If I don't take them my anxiety goes through the roof and I start to imagine headaches,pain etc...this can't be good for me..and I don't know how to stop...
Avatar m tn I take oral prednisone (not sure if its same as what you have) although mine come in 25mg and 5mg so I can taper the dose easily. I dont know how I would having to take that many in a day but I can tell you they are very bitter so only take as many as you can easily wash down with water... if they so much as touch your tongue its foul and takes ages to get rid of the taste.
Avatar f tn Danie i agree with you!! I don't like Tylenol. It doesn't work for me at all. Advil does the job.
1303537 tn?1317800741 I just dont wanna mess up and not know it! I get drug tested everyweek so I dont wanna take something I shouldnt. I also started taking wellbutrin, i noticed after around day 45 i was over the "clean and sober bliss" and started to feel down and didnt wanna get in bed, ate soo much. Anyways I really need something for my back let me know what you think.
Avatar n tn i have started a new job about 2 months ago and it did not start untill then. It was not real bad at first, but annoying now.It started on my arms and now its all over my body . There is a rash on my belly, just itch. Since then,i have been using cortizone-10,1%hydrocortisone,gold bond,and took benedryl but the itching and rash has not went away . My whole body seems to itch, especially my arms and belly.When i take baths i itch in the water more .
Avatar f tn Everything flares my IC. The only antibiotic I can take that doesn't feel like battery acid is Keflex. Every NSAID I have tried feels like battery acid (ibuprophen, mobic). My doc put me on methylprednisolone as a last ditch effort and EVEN THAT feels like battery acid, but unlike with all the others.. after the medication left my system I felt 100% like a normal, pain free, human being. I desperately, desperately want to continue with steroid therapy but I don't know what to try next.
Avatar f tn Is advil bad to take during pregnancy.? I'm 23 weeks and i'm not sure I can take it. I feel super siick and my throat is hurting.
Avatar f tn Today is my last day (5-day prescript) and my headaches went away yesterday, but optic neuritis is still quite bad. I started with the methylPred. disolvable powder for 3-days a month ago then, immediately to the prednisone tapered pack. After I quit the prednisone, all symptoms worsened. IV steroids were prescribed for 5-days (stated in the beginning), but my vision is still not well.
635835 tn?1272539383 hi Ashley, The trick with Steroids is they do not help disease outcome they can only help temporarily with symptoms. They can also cause harm with bad side effects. They also cause a rebound affect, meaning you can get worse once you are off them. For these reasons Doctors are not always thrilled to use them. Unfortunately a lot of medicine is slow.
Avatar n tn I have terrible headaches but I am allergic to tylenol, I have always just puked it up. Is there anything else I can take at this point?
Avatar n tn When I run out before my next script, I have bad withdrawels. I wish I could take something stronger but I am afraid to ask my Dr. These drugs control your whole life. and I want to stop. Nothing helps, advil, aleve are like candy and do nothing for my pain. Am I alone?
1663162 tn?1302923616 Hi - I thought I would include the definition. I have tried Prednisone, not sure if they are the same. Seems like they must be related. Jo DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Methylprednisolone is a synthetic (man-made) corticosteroid. Corticosteroids are naturally-occurring chemicals produced by the adrenal glands located adjacent to the kidneys. Corticosteroids affect metabolism in various ways and modify the immune system.
Avatar n tn The other thing is to keep up your intake of Vitamin C, Pepcid does nothing for colds, it is a stomach acid inhibitor and treats Acid Reflux, Gerd or heartburn, has nothing to do with Colds or Flu, You can take Advil for muscle aches due to colds, it is an anti-inflamatory for muscles.
