Even one 400mg pill of brufin causes me burning stomach pain but my family members easily take it for 5 to 10 days daily without stomach pain. what does it mean? nsaids not decreasing mucus to induce irritation in them? or they just dont feel it yet.

NSAID: Burning from an NSAID most commonly related to the strength of the gastric mucosa. People have various thickness and capacity to protect the stomach lining. This can vary from individual, even among family members. Solutions can be no nsaid (tylenol), try PPI or H2 blocker with NSAID, fever few which is a herb that has NSAID properties, but does not irritate stomach. https://thedocstu.blogspot.c
