My mom fell (88 yo) X-rayed, nothing broken but ignored her history of ulcerative colitis (tough to do, given the colostomy bag she’s worn for 50 years). Sent her home with Motrin. Ended up in the hospital for two weeks with bleeding ulcers.
replyHow the hell did the attending physician not see a colostomy bag during the exam?!
replyUnless you’re in Rhabdo. If you’re in so much muscle pain and your kidneys are working overtime to clear broken down tissue and you then hit them with too much ibuprofen, then you can go into kidney failure and die accidentally.
replyAt least with the folks i hang around, liver damage from years of over-drinking is probably more likely
reply> You just might die from taking tylenol if you don't realize your liver is already damaged for other reasons.
replyIf you don’t realize your kidneys are already damaged you might die from kidney failure because of ibuprofen.
Just don't take it on an empty stomach.
replyThat's ibuprofen. Which can be partially mitigated by famotidine.
