A member asked:

Can i take my 800mg ibuprofen for my chronic migraines? i'm currently taking prednisone for an allergic reaction to flagyl?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ibuprofen: And oral steroids both increase your risk of developing a stomach ulcer. If you absolutely have to do this, you'll need to take a strong antacid like omeprazole.
