Actually in the US you also get ibuprofen.
I had very invasive jaw surgery and sinus repair. It hurt. I got 600mg ibuprofen and 600mg acetaminophen for the pain every 4-6 hours. It definitively took pain down to tolerable levels.
- sterlind 4y agoas a counterexample, I had an infected tooth over the weekend. I took ibuprofen and acetaminophen around the clock, and it did jack shit. I was lying in bed and whimpering in pain, so close to going to the ER, but I knew they wouldn't do anything for me. I actually have mild PTSD about that incident. It was the second-worst pain I've experienced in my life, and it wouldn't stop.
- the_mar 4y agoQuestion 1: how much did you take? Question 2: what makes you think opioids treat infections?
- sterlind 4y ago1. 1000mg acetaminophen every 6 hours, 600mg ibuprofen every 4 hours. 2. I expect opioids treat the pain from infection. it was the weekend and I had to suffer through the weekend before seeing the dentist.
