What Are NSAIDS?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
9. Alternatives
Some NSAIDs have the potential to cause some problems for certain people. In which case, it is best to avoid giving them medication, or at least provide an alternative if medication is necessary. Instead of using drugs like ibuprofen or aspirin, for example, it may be possible for the patient to use paracetamol instead.
Paracetamol may not be as ‘strong’ as a painkiller, but it can at least help to reduce the severity of pain. You should always let a medical professional know about any problems that you have with certain medications if they are being prescribed for you.
