A member asked:
Hey i have really bad period pains but i drank when i went out, can i still take ibuprofen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
While it is not: recommended that you consume ibuprofen or any NSAID while drinking as the combination can cause severe gastric irritation. I recommend wait 6-8 hours after your last drink before taking ibuprofen and then only with some food.
