Sinus infection

Before my CKD diagnosis I used to take Advil Cold and Sinus. However, I cannot take that now. Does anyone know of a medication that is safe for CKD patients to help with coughing, sneezing, and pain. Thank you.

Confused flare or not

Increased Pred does from 5mg to 10mg and taking 800mg of Advil. Stated to feel easing off the pain so dropped the Advil and now the pain has returned. Totally confused whether to drop back to my normal dose of 6mg Pred and continue with Advil.

Coming off Pred

I’m on Alendronic acid once a week and Advil daily. Should I stop these too? Thanks. Bob UK.

4th Vaccine Shot

She gave me two advil and I slept for four hours. When I woke up the pillow case and bed sheets were soaked, but I started to feel better. I went through the day almost like normal, except I had to sit and close my eyes a bit.

Follow-up and info I've learned about CKD - may help other newbies

He thinks that I have some injury to my kidneys, but he says based on the pattern of results, the injury is old and not progressing currently - perhaps from early birth or liberal use of Advil when I was in my 20s and used it as a hangover cure.

How I went from 13 to 4 a day (Carbidopa 25/Levodopa 100)?

I first switched to 3 tablets 4 times a day and started taking Advil and a muscle relaxer for my neck pain (as needed). It is not recommended to quickly change your dose of L-dopa, so I reduced by ½ tablets a day every other day.

My SBRT Journey

Continue the Advil as needed. December 22, 9AM Last day and am I excited. Last enema, bye bye Nurse Jenna. The procedure today was on time, uneventful, and without disruption. I said goodbye to the technicians who had been utterly professional.

Bones

Not sure whether to take Advil for bones. Tbh I’m a bit scared. My dexa said no change since 2015 but the Gp keeps saying I MUST take because of being on prednisone. I have some 2 a day pills sorry can’t remember name to take and I was going to take collagen. And also eat lots of calcium rich food.

Going on four days, thoughts and prayers appreciated

I’m at an 8/9 when the advil wears off and it doesn’t take if away. Trying CBD oil and lots of prayer. I don’t think it’s Covid as this has happened before but man the intensity is bad. I have tried calling around and even driving to get a rapid test but it has been a no go.

Questioning modern cancer treatment.

I took Advil but it wasn't enough. By Saturday morning, I had to go to emergency because I could no longer walk and was stuck to crutches.

Just a question

With Advil or some anti- inflammatory helping some. Sometimes these last a half day or more. Is this lupus? I try and hit the anti- inflammatories and cbd balm along with migraine meds fast; is this Lupus? Yesterday I didn’t drink much water but didn’t eat anything out of the ordinary.

PMR question

Initially followed the advice frm the forum and stayed clear of using Celebrex to ween off of prednisone and was doing fine, got off of the prednisone and had to used extra strength Advil , which was fine until the pharmacist informed me that was not a safe option, so had to start on Celebrex 200 mg.

Anyone taking NSAID's while on Blood Thinners

Mobid is an NSAID like Ibuprofen, Advil, Alleve, etc. Both my primary doctor and EP were concerned because I'm on the blood thinner, Xarelto. The pharmacist said the combination OK as long as long as it wasn't taken daily for over a couple of months. I am aware of the online warnings .

Liver Troubles - Looking for some extra eyes on this winding road

That trip I had been drinking one beer an evening which was more than normal for me and taking some advil in the days which I sometimes did if I was feeling lousy.
