A member asked:
Are there any side effects to taking 1 advil (ibuprofen) 3 times a day for a month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: This is a relatively small dose, but any dose of nsaids can cause ulcers, GI bleeding or other issues - you should only take if necessary and should be monitored with intermittent blood tests.
