A member asked:
I have multiple sclerosis and a constant low to midlevel pain due to it. are there over the counter painkillers other than ibuprofen that may work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not aware of any: There is no effective pain killer other than tylenol (acetaminophen) and NSAIDs OTC. Since there are now newer drugs available for MS treatment, you should talk to your neurologist again about your condition.
