Common meds

Hi. Does anyone know if it’s OK to take ibuprofen and Imodium whilst also taking Carbimazole and propranolol? The formed are drugs I need occasionally…especially ibuprofen, but reading some possibly conflicting information about the safety.

I believe propranolol is the same as bisoprolol on that you should avoid NSAIDS like ibuprofen as it reduces the effectiveness. I find this annoying as paracetamol definitely doesn't work for me.

This. Ibuprofen should not be taken too often as well.
