Avatar n tn Ibuprofen is a bloodthinner. They say you arent supposed to take it...only tylenol. Because when you are pregnant the volume of blood in your body increases by 50%. If you were to have an accident, go into preterm labor, etc...you could bleed out and hemmorage. Causing lots of problems!

Avatar f tn The new instructions state a maximum total daily of 3,000 mg versus the old maximum of 4,000 mg. Additionally, it states to take the over the counter dosage every 6 hours instead of every 4 to 6 hours. These new instructions seem to be specific to their over the counter products not prescription medications. So, I am not sure if physicians will change the dosing of prescription products containing acetaminophen or not??? That remains to be seen.
1654058 tn?1407159066 Dr said I could take up to 1500 mg a day of either for fever n aches. I only have 1 kidney n somehow have it in my head not to use acetaminophen. I'm using children's Motrin. Any advice here? Karen :) thanks guys..
4610518 tn?1361075748 Oxycodone, I took between 7 to 11 per day the 5 Mg ones. This mental fog is really getting to me and making it very hard to do any thing. Which is not an option. So frustrating. My hubby is getting inpatient with me and I feel we are on the verge of ssplitting up agaim. I try and get something done around the house, may not be much but I at least try. He is expecting me to just get up and do everything like I did before.
Avatar n tn Hi that's a lot of ibuprofen it depends on how many mg it is , it can upset your stomach that's why i don't take them , the worse it can do is make you go on the toilet , Just check the dosage of them if it's 500mg each i would just take them when you need to , hope this helps , Take care ,
Avatar m tn I have been taking maximum daily dosage of generic ibuprofen (3200 mg a day, usually 1600mg at a time). I also take 600mg etodolac, 400 in the am and 200 in the pm. I have been having kidney pain on both sides, and excessive sweating. Could this be from taking too much NSAID medication?
4722421 tn?1360708571 I recently had 2 spinal fusion and feel a lot of residual nerve pain in the groin/glut area and some down the back of the leg. Been taking Ibuprofen (2 tablets of 200 mg) in the morning ...around late afternoon... if needed before I sleep. 6 tablet total for the day. I used to take 3 tablets when I went for runs that were over 6 miles but that was all I took in one day... every 3 days or so, no problem.
Avatar f tn I have a infected broke off wisdom tooth during my last pregnancy my face swelled up and I was out of Tylenol so I took a 800 mg ibuprofen. Bad call for me but I was in pain and it was only once and everything turned out fine with baby so I was lucky.
3166416 tn?1343997780 Yes, that's lower than the recommended dosage of 200-400 mg every 8 hours that I've seen on most ibuprofen packages.

Avatar n tn l am taking 30 mg of dihydrocodeine 4 times a day 3 days a week for help with pain from osteoarthritis when l do my checkout shift...no need to take when not working unless l have a spell in the garden............
Avatar n tn 400 mg the first day (the store tablets are 200 mg) eight hours apart. 400 mg is the prescription dose. Next day 200 mg eight hours apart. If there was any significant neck flexure he needs to go to an ER for an x-ray.
Avatar f tn Sweetie, there is nothing that you can take that is "a night time formula" that would have that much Ibuprofen in a dose. You shouldn't exceed the recommended dosage and if you took something that said it was a night time formula then you probably took something with diphenydramine in it. What are the active ingredients on the bottle? What strength per dose? 2900mg of Ibuprofen plus anything for sleep in not good. You need to tell someone what you took before you go to sleep.
Avatar m tn Maximum for tylenol is 4 Gm or 4,000 Mg and the Maximum for ibuprofen is 3.2 Gm or 3200 Mg-this is within a 24 HOUR period. 2400 Mg or 1800 Mg/24 hours is the most commonly prescribed for ibuprofen. I have taken care of TWO patients in the past; one who had tylenol toxicity and the other one had ibuprofen toxicity. Both patients were going into liver failure in which was caught in time. Both thought is was ok to take more than the RECOMMENDED amount of medication. Please be careful.
6708370 tn?1471490210 I also use ibuprofen. Tylenol never worked for me. Before I was cured of HCV I was told I could take up to 2000 mg of tylenol a day. I didn't take it as it did nothing for me. Once I was cured, my doctor told me I could once again take ibuprofen. I limit as much as I am able. I guess you have to weigh the risks against the benefits.
Avatar m tn Hydrocodone is available without tylenol. The brand name is vicoprofen and it has 7.5 mg of hydrocodone and 200 mg of ibuprofen, which is the same as one Advil tablet. Vicoprofen also has a generic equivalent. I've found it to be a more effective short-acting medication than regular vicodin, probably because ibuprofen is a true anti-inflammatory which tylenol isn't.
Avatar m tn I stopped taking my anxiety medication (clonazepam) about 2 days ago. It was 15 MG total with a dosage of 1 MG 3 times a day as needed, although I was taking it in .5 mg when I needed it. While I have stopped taking that medication, the doctor also said to take 600 MG of ibuprofen every 6 hours to help with the pain for 5 days. I think this is day 3 and I wasn't feeling any issue so I stopped taking that too. When taking the ibuprofen yesterday I felt weird. Any help?
Avatar m tn about 5 days ago i was really drunk and I took about 7 ibuprofen 800 mg pills, about 3 days ago I ate some really spicy pork food and my stomach started hurting since. I have been vomiting and my stomach hurts a lot I feel bloated.

Avatar m tn Can Kidney pain be a side effect of taking Ibuprofen? I was taking ibuprofen last week consecutively for 3 days (400mg t.i.d) after laser eye surgery. A day or so after starting it I experienced mild pain/discomfort in my left flank that came in waves. When I stopped taking the ibuprofen the flank pain also stopped. The next day I took one more dose - the flank pain started again within an hour, but was gone the next day.
Avatar f tn Hi, I have a question. Sometimes I casually contemplate suicide--not very seriously, but more as a curiosity. Yesterday I decided to experiment with what it would be like to take a lot of pills. All I had on hand was ibuprofen, so I took 10,000 mg. It wasn't a suicide attempt, but more of a way to satisfy my curiosity about suicide by OD. However, after doing a little research online, some people seem to think that 10,000 mg can be dangerous.
