Alternatives: Assuming that you have been already evaluated and treated for bleeding, then you want to take medications that don't irritate the GI tract. Commonly all the nsaids can cause irritation and potential bleeds. Tylenol (acetaminophen) products might be better tolerated. Many prescriptions meds can be taken safely and often times in conjunction with meds for your belly, to help protect it. Talk to your doc re: options.

Bleeding: Long-term NSAID use -ibuprofen, naproxen- can cause ulcers. Liver failure can cause varices -enlarged veins- that can bleed. Tylenol (acetaminophen) should be limited. Additional meds can reduce the bleeding risks. I assume your bleeding is controlled, evaluated and not-dangerous. If not, seek medical attention.
