HI kfmeme ,

It is probably best to ask your pharmacist what you can take with your existing medications and diagnoses, just to be safe.

We have an article on our website about headaches in lupus which has lots of information and advice you may find helpful - lupusuk.org.uk/headaches-an...

Aloha kfmeme!!

I know the Methotrexate bottle states do not take other medicines such as Motrin but, my doctor still prescribes both of those medications to me monthly. I take Motrin so often that I probably have so many holes in my belly.....LoL!! That's not funny, but with all the stuff we suffer.....it is. I haven't been officially diagnosed with Lupus, yet but have been diagnosed with a lot of other health conditions. So many that i myself, cannot understand. This Lupus journey that we all go through is simply gross. Ha Ha. Sometimes I can't help myself but just laugh because as we all know.....it's either we laugh or, we cry. I'm sick & tired of being sick & tired.....AND, I'm so over crying. LoL.

I went totally off track with your Motrin concern, I'm so sorry.

Motrin helps me a lot. I haven't experienced anything bad taking the two medications together, except a little burning in my belly once in awhile. I guess as any other warning labels.....you doctor would just need to monitor you while on both.

I get fevers every single day & my body is kind of immune to Tylenol so Motrin is what controls my fevers.

kfmeme, I wish you all the best in your Lupus Journey. My Love & Blessings to you, always. If you need to vent.....like I just above, hee hee, please feel free to contact me at anytime!!

Happy Happy Thanksgiving to you!! I hope your day is filled with all the love in the world.

Many Blessings & Warmest Aloha,

Angie from Hawaii!!
