A member asked:
I've been taking 1200mg+ of ibuprofen a day for 2 weeks. i am experiencing nausea and abdominal pain. could it be due to the ibuprofen?

Certainly!: It must be considered as a likely factor. You should talk to your pcp and try some h-2 blockers such as ranitidine. If you get relief, it is most likely that the Ibuprofen is causative, although what you are taking is 1/2 the fda max dose for arthritis!
