minus-squaresaltesc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前Whoah. So, never heard of those. But DDG tells me Tylenol is just a brand—talk about an effective monopoly.
minus-squareDenvil@lemmy.onelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前We do that a lot it seems, like the South who call everything and it’s mother coke
minus-squareVilian@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前lol they only learn the brand name what make it harder to get cheaper medication, that’s so USA
minus-squaredisguy_ovahea@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前Advil is Ibuprofen and Aleve is naproxen. They tend to get the same brand treatment as Band-Aids and Vaseline in the US.
minus-square9point6@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前Can you buy naproxen without a prescription over there? I thought you generally needed to pair it with something like omeprazole and the general public can’t be trusted to read instructions
minus-squareryathal@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前Generally they just recommend taking nsaids with food, and it mostly solves the stomach problems.
minus-squaredisguy_ovahea@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前Yes. It’s available over the counter. I’ve never heard of pairing it with omeprazole. What is the reason for that?
minus-squaretrxxruraxvr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 年前NSAIDS (type of painkiller) can cause or exacerbate stomach issues. Omeprazole is an antacid that can counter some of those issues.
Whoah.
