huh? how does one pill of ibuprofen do that? or is it taking it like every day or a drug interaction

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Taking it every day wears away your stomach and intestinal lining and you could get ulcers. Also generally it's not just one, it's 3-4. Sometimes multiple times a day.

My aunt actually had this happen went brain dead from the loss of blood when a huge ulcer popped. She was in the hospital for a lung biopsy when it happened it was pretty terrible and it was later concluded ibuprofen was the most likely cause.

yeah i mean if you have significant issues with migraines you prob shouldnt be taking it every day but rather finding a more permanent solution, also is that only ibuprofen? what about acetaminophen or nsaids
