Ibuprofen

Ive just realised my tinnitus gets worse after I've taken ibuprofen. Just googled this and seen that it can happen. Has anyone else noticed this and if so have you found a relatively strong painkiller that doesn't affect it

Ibuprofen Gel

To cut a long story short, my GP has diagnosed tendonopathy and while I wait to see a physiotherapist for a more detailed assessment, she has advised me to rest it (difficult as it makes it awkward and painful to get dressed), apply ice and use ibuprofen gel.

Naproxen Vs ibuprofen

I only take either 1 naproxen or 2 ibuprofen at night. Is that a dangerous dose long term?

Pain relief: First period after lap

First period after lap and the usual ibuprofen and tranexamic acid ain't cutting it. Tried mefanamic acid too but previously didn't find it an improvement on the ibuprofen. Any advice greatly appreciated

Pain Relief and Sleep

My son broke his arm yesterday and we gave him ibuprofen before bed in hopes the pain would not keep him up. He didn't complain about any pain but complained that he couldn't fall asleep. He was up until midnight. I since read that ibuprofen can keep some people awake.

Over the counter painkillers

The pain is getting harder to manage & I’d be grateful for suggestions of pain relief that might work better than current ibuprofen, panadol & hot water bottles:) Have just been reading it’s better to start ibuprofen before day 1 of period but it’s been difficult to know when that is….& I wasn’t sure

Steroids and Ibuprofen

My doctor has said under no circumstances to take any medication containing ibuprofen because of my steroids. Paracetomol does nothing to relieve the pain, co-codamol makes me ill. I read on the forum other people take ibuprofen which I think would help me. Any ones thoughts?

NSAID's (like Ibuprofen) with Apixaban

Ibuprofen is not recommended because of the risk of intestinal bleeding, though I have taken it for short periods and it works really well. Are there any Anti Inflammatory drugs that you can take safely with Apixaban ? Advice appreciated. All the best Colin

Ibuprofen with methotrexate and azathioprine

The trouble is I was told by the pharmacist she wouldn't give me ibuprofen as I was on the methotrexate. My rheumatologist said it was OK to take both so now I am confused. Is it safe or not?

Citalopram and Ibuprofen

I have been taking ibuprofen but then just read that I shouldn’t. Any thoughts on short term use to help me manage this pain? I’m also taking Paracetamol. Thanks
