Hi jordlee21

Please go ahead and use Ibuprofen if it will give you relief. It's quite safe. Use paracetamol as well if that helps.

Whoever told you not to use ibuprofen was wrong.

Normal cautions about painkiller medications of course apply.

Michael (31 years) uses paracetamol, ibuprofen, and a small dose of Baclofen 4 times daily. He has tried other combinations, but we always return to this mixture. It works as well as anything.

I hope so! I eat ibuprofen like candy to get through the day! (Not the best approach but seriously I couldn’t function without it).
