View Full Version : Is Advil ok to take??? Ellen 05-23-2008, 10:45 AM when pregnant? I don't have any tylenol in the house..... Miss Mandy 05-23-2008, 10:47 AM I think it's ok......I would just take one though. I hope you feel better! Jordan 05-23-2008, 10:48 AM I'm trying to think... I haven't worked in two years, so some of that stuff is starting to get blurry, but I'm thinking that the answer is no. I'm pretty sure Tylenol is the only thing you are allowed to take, but I could be wrong. Jill 05-23-2008, 10:48 AM I dont know. It is all sooo confusing!!!:duh Pregnancy is nothing but problems!!:hehe Just joking msemmaleahx3 05-23-2008, 10:50 AM Call the doctor and ask! That's what I do when I'm not too sure about something. Ellen 05-23-2008, 10:52 AM Call the doctor and ask! That's what I do when I'm not too sure about something. :giggle I know that's the easy answer.. :giggle reynswife 05-23-2008, 10:53 AM I was told only Tylenol. Brandi 05-23-2008, 10:54 AM Advil, yes. Aleve, NO. Advil is just stronger ibuprofen, as far as I know. Whereas Aleve is Nopraxen. I (L) Aleve b/c it works SO well for anything that is bothering me, but I can't take it, obviously :sadeyes Laura48 05-23-2008, 10:55 AM I have always been told Tylenol only. :dunno Brandi 05-23-2008, 10:55 AM I found this: Minor Headache or Body Ache # Tylenol or any acetaminophen preparations, 2 tablets or 650 mg every 4 hours # Do not take aspirin during your pregnancy unless instructed to do so by your physician. Aspirin may interfere with blood clotting and cause problems during labor and delivery # Do not take ibuprofen (such as Advil or Motrin) unless instructed by your physician # If headache persists for more than 24 hours, call the Clinic which says no. I thought you could take it as long as you weren't in your last trimester since one of my doctors told me that it's more of a concern for thinning the blood. So, I don't know. I guess call your doc b/c I don't wanna give you the wrong info :lol Bex 05-23-2008, 10:57 AM i was told no advil. tylenol only Victoria 05-23-2008, 10:57 AM I wouldn't take Advil unless instructed by your doctor. Ellen 05-23-2008, 10:59 AM Ok...so I looked it up.... Tylenol is acetaminophen and Advil is ibuprofen. Advil is a no-no. Ellen 05-23-2008, 10:59 AM Guess I shall suck it up until I can get to the store :) instant_oatmeal 05-23-2008, 11:08 AM I was told only tylenol.
