A member asked:

I took two rennies this morning, and one ibuprofen after lunch, is this ok? could this cause stomach upset or bleeding?

Specializes in Emergency Medicine

Should be fine: The stomach meds should help protect from irritation by the ibuprofen. Should not cause bleeding, but might get some upset if on empty stomach.
