      Hi ...would a few ibrop. do any harm while you are fighting a headache? I know its one of the ones that they dont like you on permanently...but instead of too much paracetamol

      I don't think any form of pain relief is safe - they need to be excreted from the body and it's the liver's job to do that. I suspect, tho, that you would have to take a huge amount for quite a while to cause any real harm: many of us tho are on other drugs which are toxic to the liver so it's already struggling! DD

      I also think that ibuprophen-based PKs are risky for asthmatics. I have been told never to take Neurophen, so I haven't. Sometimes I surprise myself at how obedient I can be! DD

      I never knew that about ibuprofen and it's risk for asthma. I'm asthmatic too, take ibu sometimes but that's probably why I've never known. But j suppose you have to weigh up risk v benefit don't you? If benefit is greater then you'd take the meds as we all do with our Arthur meds. Damn Arthur
