Guest guest Posted April 3, 2003 Report Share Posted April 3, 2003 Alice, I think you are right. Dr. Cohen told me to not take Tylenol or aspirin, but that advil was ok. I've taken prescription NSAIDS in the past and he didn't ever say anything negative about me taking them. I would just ask if you are concerned.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2003 Report Share Posted April 3, 2003 Barbara, I've taken Vioxx and it made my stomach hurt some, but other than that no side effects. I was just on it short term and when I wasn't seeing any difference in my symptoms my doc. discontinued it. Vioxx and Celebrex are suppose to better than the others as far as gastro side effects. Good luck to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 3, 2003 Report Share Posted April 3, 2003 Hi Barbara, I'm not sure where the other list got this information from. Dr Cohen recommends Ibuprofin and Motrin but does not recommend Tylenol. His patients with heart issues are given the ok to take one asprin a day. The MDA recommends Naprosin for body pain and sometimes migrains. As far as I know...this is what is recommended. Anyone else? Of course..when in question.. it's a good idea to go to the source.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2003 Report Share Posted April 3, 2003 Barbara, I have taken Vioxx and it was what Dr Cohen recommended. I never had a problem with it.
