Is it ok to take paracetamol/ibuprofen with NDT?

[sip1]

Probably a silly question, but I can't find the answer anywhere!

[Clutter]

Yes, but try to take two hours away from your NDT, Sip.

Thanks Clutter (again, sorry I keep asking so many questions - I'm starting to feel like a right pain in the butt!)

[Clutter in reply to sip1]

You ain't rationed, Sip and you aren't a PITA either Don't forget that you may be asking questions others are to shy to put and the answers may help them too.

I'm glad you asked, cos I'm eating ibuprofen for an ear infection at the moment!

[Clutter in reply to HarryE]

Aww, ((( Harry ))) If I had toothache or earache I'd take whatever pain relief I needed, when I wanted it and stuff worrying about whether the thyroid meds were being absorbed.

[HarryE in reply to Clutter]

That's pretty much how it's going! Had a week on antibiotic ear drops, now on antibiotic pills as drops didn't touch it!

[Clutter in reply to HarryE]

Poor you. It's blerdy miserable and just when you were feeling well. Not fair!

[HarryE in reply to Clutter]

Thanks. Daren't look to see if ear infections are linked to thyroid issues

[Clutter in reply to HarryE]

Everything is linked to thyroid issues. I fort you'd know that by now. It's unlikely to be thyroid related in an optimally medicated person though, whatever comfort there may be in that xx
