A member asked:
Does ibuprofen make you clot more? asking because the news says it can cause heart attack and stroke.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ibuprofen: This agent may make some people clot more. For most people it doesn't but as there isn't an easy way to predict who will have this effect. The recent AHA warning on NSAIDs reflect this caution.
