Facts About Pain Relievers

It is estimated that over 40,000 Americans each year have to be hospitalized due to the side effects of common over counter NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). Some of these common drugs are; Tylenol, Anacin, Excedrin, ibuprofen, Advil,and Nuprin.

These same drugs can also cause liver and kidney damage.

If you take any of these NSAIDs before going to bed, you will likely cut your body's production of melatonin, a hormone that helps you sleep, by 75%.

My take on this is to live healthy and enjoy wellness without these NSAIDs if possible.If you have been taking these daily for many months then you need to see a doctor and get your problem corrected. Limit your use of these NSAIDs as much as possible.
