Now we know why Catwoman has that smirk on her face.

Oh, it's just usually a vague headache or something, no big deal.

Um, just as an FYI, *supposedly* you can get semi-addicted to the stuff and get rebound headaches where you then need to take it to stop the headache you've got because you haven't taken your daily one. IJS. Though I don't know at what dose. But they yell at people with migraines about taking too many/too often. More to the tylenol, but ibuprofen too.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

"I'm just saying that when a majority [of the crew] is female, sometimes certain kinds of unsanctioned behaviour or something else occurs."

If people are engaging in "unsanctioned behavior" during re-entry, I think they're too stupid to be astronauts.

"Honey, this might not be the best..."

"Any time's a good time, right?"

"Well, yeah, normally I'd totally agree, it's just, you know, re-entry can be tricky and NO TEETH NO TEETH!"

"Whoops."

I take Tylenol PM every night to sleep since I've been on the Wellbutrin.

Random pharmeceutical question: Is it bad that I take one aleve and/or 2-4 advil pretty much every day?

Ibuprofen were not good for my stomach, so I had to stop taking them entirely.

Do you need the Tylenol part for pain (or other Tylenol-related needs)? If not, you can just take a benadryl (or the store-brand equivalent; diphenhydramine) and skip the unnecessary tylenol, since acetaminophen can be hard on the liver, and I know you're a beer-drinker, so liver health is KEY.

what meara said. i was taking a good 4-6 ibuprofens a day for months for pretty much daily headaches a while back and he* told me a)ibuprofen is proven to cause rebound headaches and b)i needed to not take ibuprofen anymore if i didn't want to permanently damage my liver and kidneys.

for headaches these days i go for excedrin extra strength. if it's a mild one, i'll just take one, but if it's bad i'll take 2 and repeat in four hours if it still hasn't gone away. (it usually has.) i would swear by excedrin.

[*edited to clarify that he = my doctor]

Do you have liver or kidney disease? Because that's a pretty vague statement (re: damage). Doctors routinely prescribe ibuprofen in doses of 800-1000 mg 3 times a day, and I can't see as how they'd do that if it was going to create an epidemic of liver/kidney failure.

Ibuprofen is known to exacerbate stomach problems, but liver damage is generally caused by acetaminophen.

no. no history of it in the family either.

Doctors routinely prescribe ibuprofen in doses of 800-1000 mg 3 times a day, and I can't see as how they'd do that if it was going to create an epidemic of liver/kidney failure.

but they don't expect the patient to do that for an extended period of time. i would have continued to take that amount on a daily basis for the rest of my life if he hadn't told me that.

I'll switch back to Benadryl, Tep. You're right.
