Yeah paracetamol does absolutely nothing to me with pain. I thought its mainly fever medicine.
replySame here. Paracetamol also gives me pretty strong stomach aches whereas ibuprofen rarely has a gastric effect and when it does it's mild at best. I've been told by many people that the opposite should be true but oh well.
replyI wish they dipyrone was sold here, but alas I can only get it when I travel abroad.
With medicine both can be true, the response depends on so many factors in your body. Same way that for some people, particularly those with ADHD, taking stimulants can make them sleepy.
replyYeah, for me paracetamol is worse in everything - fever, pain, etc.
replyFor mild stuff I use ibuprofen, if it gets worse, diclofenac works every time.
