A member asked:
Can i take advil if i have a heterozygote mutation of factor v leiden? any extra increase risk of clot? thank you
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No extra risk: Advil will not increase your risk for clots. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.
