Baller ozski Posted June 20, 2014 Author Baller Share Posted June 20, 2014 Paracetamol is classified as a mild analgesic. It is commonly used for the relief of headaches and other minor aches and pains and is a major ingredient in numerous cold and flu remedies. In combination with opioid analgesics, paracetamol can also be used in the management of more severe pain such as post-surgical pain and providing palliative care in advanced cancer patients. Though paracetamol is used to treat inflammatory pain, it is not generally classified as an NSAID because it exhibits only weak anti-inflammatory activity. While generally safe for use at recommended doses even small overdoses can be fatal. Compared to other over-the-counter pain relievers, paracetamol is significantly more toxic in overdose but may be less toxic when used chronically at recommended doses. Ibuprofen (INN) (/ˈaɪbjuːproʊfɛn/ or /aɪbjuːˈproʊfən/ eye-bew-proh-fən; from isobutylphenylpropanoic acid) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for relieving pain, helping with fever and reducing inflammation. Ibuprofen has an antiplatelet effect, though it is relatively mild and somewhat short-lived compared with aspirin or prescription antiplatelet drugs. In general, ibuprofen also has a vasodilation effect. Ibuprofen was derived from propanoic acid by the research arm of Boots Company during the 1960s and patented in 1961.

Baller Marco Posted June 20, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2014 Due to drug interactions, I can't do any of the standard NSAID's or other common anti-inflammatory/painkillers. If it is not bad enough for percocet, an evening martini does just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member Than_Bogan Posted June 20, 2014 Gold Member Share Posted June 20, 2014 Tylenol is acetaminophen. Never heard of paracetamol, but my phone knew how to spell it so I guess it's out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ed_Obermeier Posted June 20, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2014 Bring back Vioxx. That stuff worked way better than any of the above, WAY better than Celebrex. All the crap about Vioxx causing heart attacks was just that, crap. The Lawyers figured out how to villianize it and make a crap load of money off the law suits. The knock was it made your platelets a bit stickier than normal which in people with severe blockages and already prone to heart attack could be an issue. The fix? A baby aspirin a day to offset, pretty simple. Why that never came out I'll never know (actually I DO know, ____ing lawyers...). Otherwise I switch back and forth between ibuprophen and naproxen.

Baller ral Posted June 20, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2014 There is better stuff out there than ibuprofen and paracetamol, like Diclofenac. I use one slow liberation one that is just magic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Garn Posted June 20, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2014 What about Naproxin (Aleve) vs. ibuprofen? Which is better? Different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Zman Posted June 21, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 21, 2014 Aleve or Ibuprofen. Tylenol does nothing and has no anti-inflammatory magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Waternut Posted June 21, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 21, 2014 For a normal day of skiing, I drink a glass of whey protein when I get home. Like drinking chocolate milk and the muscle soreness is virtually non-existent even on the first day of the season. Now if I've had a hard crash or actually collided with said 300hp boat, then I'll take curcumin (hippy version of ibuprofen) or ibuprofen if it was really bad and I anticipate serious swelling.

Baller bojans Posted June 21, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 21, 2014 Paracetamol and Acetominphen are basically one in the same. My guess is the poster has a Euro background Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller gsm_peter Posted June 21, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 21, 2014 I do not train with pain killers unless special occasions. Those being type prepaid coaching. Iboprofen type is best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MrJones Posted June 22, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 22, 2014 I'm a PT and never heard of "Para" whatever. In general, I am anti "pain meds" even with my post surgical patients. On the other hand anti inflammatory drugs can be of real benefit. I don't recommend them for prolonged use, so I am not a huge fan of Mobic/Celebrex although they have their place. I do often recommend Ibu for symptomatic treatment of inflammatory pain. As an aside I miss Vioxx!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller xrated Posted June 22, 2014 Baller Share Posted June 22, 2014 I like to mix asprin and NSAIDs but I don't often need them. Thing with NSAIDs is that you dont' get instant relieve like asprin, your body needs to build up a supply per say of the NSAIDs before you get benefits. I miss the days where anything from a cold/flu to soreness could be treated with a cold beer, hot shower and a handful of pills or shot of Nyquil. Not that it doesn't still work, but I can't recover from that fix like I used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
