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 The Prednisone I took in combination with antibiotics finally eliminate my sinus infection (it was a side of the treatement and I have suffered a lot from that), since then I don't have any more the sinus problem and don't have anymore fever (only once in few days), so I am not using any more Paracetamol or other fever reducer.
Avatar n tn Eat with everything you take - take it with a large class of milk, eat crackers, or something. Advil will also eat your stomach. Speak to the pharmacist about your discomfort and if you can take any OTC meds and when and how to take them. I take steroids to live and you can only take the acid reducers in a certain way in order not to reduce the potency of the other meds you are on. Talk to your doctor as well - but eat.
Avatar f tn I take 800 ADVIL when the pain gets really bad and when it is unbearable I go on PREDNISONE for 7 days. I do not do the prednisone more than 2X a year.
1182699 tn?1297574784 s, I will take an advil and I usually start feeling better. I mentioned this to my PCP once and he said Ibuprofen has many effects on the body, it's not just a fever reducer/pain reliever so it very well could be effecting the heart. It makes me wonder if it has anything to do with blood pressure (although mine is usually very low 90/60). Any thoughts?
Avatar n tn I dont know if this has anything to do with my symptoms, but my 6 year old son climbed into bed with me and proceeded to elbow me in the lip quite hard. The next day I had facial numbness from my lip up to my eye, and my right eye is blinking more than my left eye. In fact my left eye is not blinking completly and getting dry. I am having no pain except for the bruise on my lip from the hit. It has lasted about three days now..
1394601 tn?1328032308 I began taking my Rebif shots without taking Advil in advance. Am I playing with fire?
Avatar n tn Earlier I Was In Extreme Pain Due To A Tooth Ache I Took Advil Because I Tried Tylenol Earlier In The Day && It Did Nothing Could Me Taking Advil Hurt My Baby I'm 28 Weeks Already!
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.
Avatar m tn ) about an hour before I give myself the shot and then head right to bed. I also take two Advil with my morning meds and that seems to ward off the stray headache. The Advil dose was suggested by my neuro right from the get go. I'm sorry you are still having the side effects. That must make you dread shot night - it would me!
Avatar n tn Started out upper respiratory and after 2 months went on prednisone for 12 days.....40 mgs for 7 days, 20mgs for 5. I am a basket case at the moment...withdrawal phase. Been off for 6 days and still shaky. Aside from the above, I have terrible sweats...l cannot blame it on the prednisone as I had them before I went on it. Doctor blames it on Advil which I don't take???????? Any reason I should be feeling this way?
Avatar f tn Within the past year I noticed that after taking Advil I started breaking out with hives under my eye. I have never had this problem then it started. I was wondering if anyone has ever had this happen to them and what if any were the causes identified. I am 30 years old and a smoker. Also, it doesn't happen all the time but only sometimes. I don't know what would cause this to happen and not consistently. For example, this morning I took it and I was fine.
Avatar f tn I am a 22 year old female. About a week ago i came down with a sinus infection. A few days later i started getting this horrible pain on my back. Seemed as though my skin was literally burning. After it would stop that i would get chill bumps from head to toe. The chill bumps hurt the worst. Felt like each one was a needle coming out of my skin. I checked my temp. numerous times and i never ran a fever. These last for hours of just pain. Nothing makes it stop.
Avatar f tn The argument over use of oral prednisone is long-standing. The answer is yes, use of oral prednisone definitely predisposes a person to new infections, both viral and bacterial. That being said, once a given strain of flu is defeated natural antibodies prevent re-infection with that exact strain. It's like getting a vaccination. With oral prednisone the problem is risk vs. benefit. Prednisone affects different people in different ways.
Avatar f tn Agressiveness and a "potty mouth" is common with steriods, specifically prednisone. This genetically hard-wired. It has survival value. It happens to certain animals (and people) whenever the immune system is suppressed or they are injured and unable to physically defend themselves. The organism fends off prey by agressive verbal behavior, threats, loud speech and gesticulation.
Avatar m tn Is there an urgent care or another office you have near you? Though even with a male doctor, a female should also be present with you in the exam room.
Avatar m tn He also prescribed singulair, prednisone(10 mg for 7 days), flonase, antibiotic, and some cough syrup and mucinex. The prednisone helped with the pain but didnt make it completely go away. So Im not sure what my next step should be. This has been going on for a several months now and doesnt seem to be getting any better.
Avatar f tn Doctors usually recommend an initial high dose of the corticosteroid drug prednisone for people with autoimmune hepatitis. The medication is reduced to the lowest possible dose that controls the disease over a few weeks. Most people need to continue taking the prednisone for at least 18 to 24 months, and some people remain on it for life. Although you may experience remission a few years after starting treatment, the disease often returns if the drug is discontinued.
Avatar n tn She was given steroid and antibiotic injections. Also given Baytril and Prednisone to take home and give daily. She gets Prednisone 20mg 3 times a day. She began heavy breathing on day 2 of the med and also seems to have belly bloating. Is this normal? I called my Vets office and all they said was to bring her in to get seen. But, we have already spent $1300 in one week alone on vet bills. Help!
Avatar f tn However, I have been taking Advil since then, even though the pain is not gone. Could you tell me the symptoms of a blood clot, stroke or any idea what this pain may be related with?
Avatar f tn I refuse to take the prednisone but my doctor says it is the first choice since IVIG are so expensive. I would rather go with the IVIG by IV's than do another dose of prednisone. I wish I knew if EBV caused my low platelet count and what would be my options to raise them to normal count which is 150,000.
