HELP I need pain meds?

Ok be honest do any of you people take Ibuprofen? and if i do what will happen? I have strained a muscle in my back-shoulder area, i KNOW that a good does of mortion would cure it! Will i bleed to death if i take it? lol I got to have something or im gonna hurt somebody!!!!! i still have my liquid loratab, dont know it will help muscle pain of not? YHEA yhea i know call the dr! DAWN

Dawn you can take your Loratab and it will help. My doctor told me that if you take motrin take an pepcid ac or something similar first! Do not make a habit of taking NSAIDS but once in a while is ok. Just take the pepcid FIRST! I had asked because of my painful monthly things.... Hope this helps. Talk to you soon. Amy

Thanks Amy i took my loratab and put a bengay heat patch on it and it does feel better. I was kinda thinking that once in a while a little motrin wouldn't kill me! lol It's nice to know that you have tried it and are still living! hehe

I can't take ANYTHING for pain except nice addictive substances.....and I opted to NOT get a perscription for them! So I am ouching right along with you! Smoochies Arlies

That heat pad i used helped alot , my dear momma called me in some flexaril and enteric coated naperson, just incase i get to wanting to pull my hair out again. DAWN~

Hi Dawn, sorry for the late response. Either would probably be fine, though the coated meds will definately be tolerated more easily. It is also important to remember that the lortab also is high in tylenol, so be careful if you take over-the-counter tylenol or ibuprophen with it an the effect it can have on your liver enzymes. Good luck, james.

Thanks James, I think I'm gonna live now! lol Just got my flexaril filled that should help, if not i will them take that coated naperson ,i have taken it before with out any problems. Don't know if i ever told you or not, but I know your wifery and her sister, I was an Everett myself grew up in Hickory went to school with them, GREAT GIRLS! DAWN~~

Tylenol 8 Hour relief is great, but i take it for migraines lisa
