Avatar f tn Can Ibuprofen cause dizziness, ear pain, stuffiness, and feelings of passing out if taken several times a week?
Avatar n tn The label on my bottle says to not take the tenofovir with ibuprofen. However, I previously asked my doctor if ibuprofen (among many other question I had) would be okay to take alongside it occasionally --- and he said it was no problem. Hmmm. What to believe? The label or the doctor? o_O Any personal experience with the interaction of these two medications?
1148241 tn?1294052796 I recently quit taking Vicodin for my joint pain because I was concerned about liver damage. I have been taking Ibuprofen instead. I've been taking two in the morning and then two in the afternoon. It says don't take longer than 10 days though. I have to take something though. My knees and wrists and fingers hurt too much if I don't. I know you guys aren't Drs but experience counts for something if its what your Dr has told you. What do you guys take?
Avatar f tn You ALWAYS want to follow direction on the label - Ibuprofen is normally 200-500mg every 4 hours. The extra strength Advil I looked at is 400mg and has a DAILY maximum of 3 tablets so 1200mg. Which means you took a full days dose in one setting. The problem with NSAIDs like Advil is the risk of GI bleeding, it is extremely hard on the stomach and digestive tract.
Avatar f tn As the above poster mentioned, Ibuprofen in any of its forms (Advil and Motrin along with some other pain meds--read the label--have ibuprofen) can help with period cramps. For me, acetaminophen (Tylenonl) has always been better. Heating pads can also be of use, but you can't sleep with one. You can make a rice sock (or get one of those pads that have them) to heat in the microwave before bed then utilize that to help as that won't keep heating up all night.
10678677 tn?1413254266 Tylenol (acetaminophen) is safe, but do not take ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve). For cold medications you must read the label because you should not use something with dextromethorphan (cough suppressant). Also, some already contain acetaminophen so you don't want to take double doses.
1742269 tn?1315381633 Can anyone tell me what the difference is between Advil or Ibprofen compared to the Advil Migraine? From what ive seen, its basically the same thing, except the label says Migraine.
Avatar f tn You should see a doctor for advice and a diagnosis, before your symptoms worsen. Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen can help reduce fevers and pain (read the directions on the label for dosage information), but you should still be seen by a doctor in order to determine what the problem is. I hope you start feeling better soon. Get plenty of rest, and keep drinking healthy fluids to stay hydrated.
Avatar f tn I'm 30 weeks pregnant and I just got a bunch of dental work done.. my teeth and causing me so much pain. I have a oral pain relief anesthetic liquid, is it safe for me to use it?

Avatar f tn Is it true you shouldn't take ibuprofen it can harm the baby? I just seen this today while doing research as to this is my first. i have been taking it before I found out I was thinking my period was coming and I've always had bad cramps so I know to start taking it before my period comes to help with the pain.

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.
