Is taking painkillers (combiflames, ibuprofyn etc) during periods harmful for health?
Most are dangerous on regular usage like Rofecoxib except Aspirin. If these kind of data are coming out — Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and risk of heart failure in four European countries: nested case-control study, FDA Strengthens Warning of Heart Attack and Stroke Risk for Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, you do not really have much options to talk around.One Ibuprofen not dangerous but lowest is dose usually lower is side effects.Pain has kind of scale. If she has 6/10 pain, her target should be to keep around 1 - 2/10 pain like alarm system. Otherwise with 0/10 pain she’ll not understand when naturally the pain is going away or increasing. Her target is to balance pain and dose.Now read Period pain - NHS Choices, you’ll see that Aspirin and Ibuprofen suggested medicines without doctor. Ibuprofen is listed as not full data is available. When towards questionable, better to use at lowest dose. Aspirin becomes choice when Ibuprofen has problems.Regarding the other old 2014’s answers - they were written before new research data came.
