Too Sqad - Ibuprofen
41 Answers
Hi,
I have been meaning to say for ages. Absolutely no disrespect to you, but you mention taking Ibuprofen a great deal in your answers. It's a very good drug for all sorts of aches and pains, available over the counter and I would certainly take it. However, I can't take it because I'm on blood thinners and my husband cannot because of heart issues as it's an Anti-inflammatory drug.
We have quite a few friends in our age group in this situation because of various health issues who have also
Been told to avoid Ibuprofen.
I'm just wondering whether you should issue a warning that Ibuprofen cant be taken by some people and actually for them Paracetamol would be the answer. A lot of folk on here rely on you rather than consult a GP or pharmacist.
Just a thought. There are a lot of oldies on this site!!
