Acetaminophen: Acetaminophen (tylenol) is a safe alternative. You can take 2 extra strength (500mg) tablets up to four times per day.

Opioids: Allergy to nsaids like Aspirin and inbuprofen does limit some options. It does not limit the use of opioids (narcotics) like oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, and morphine.
