A member asked:
Should i stop taking ibuprofen while trying to conceive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
In short, yes!: Ibuprofen and related nsaids (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) such as aleve (naproxen) are considered "pregnancy risk category" by the fda. Tyelnol (acetaminophen) is preferred. As always, consult your physician.
