Can i take dolobid after a tooth extraction?

Post extraction: talk to your dentist about your need for pain medications following your extraction. For a simple extraction OTC medications like ibuprophen work well. You should never take a prescription medication that is not prescribed for you for a specific reason. This can be very dangerous.

Ask your dentist: who did the proceedure and has your medical history. Never take a medication that is not prescribed by a doctor for that specific problem. Do not self treat.
