I recently found out that if you have high blood pressure, or heart problems, you should take Tylenol instead of Advil. Did you know that? Advil, motrin, aleve use ibuprofen anti-inflammatory drugs where tylenol uses acetomenaphin which is less likely to increase your blood pressure.
That's interesting and important to know for sure.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
That's good to know. Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteAlso, be VERY careful with cold medications. Most of them rev up blood pressure.
ReplyDeleteWith Tylenol, one must really limit alcohol, because it is VERY easy to get liver failure with mixing any alcohol at all with Tylenol...
Thanks for pointing this out!
DeleteOh. I din't kniw that! Okey...

I didn't know that actually. I generally just take paracetamol or ibuprofen if I'm in pain.
ReplyDeleteI can't take Advil because it causes internal bleeding.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this information.
ReplyDeleteWhen taking any medication care should always be taken, always be aware of any contra-indications etc. Read the labels and advisory information carefully.
All the best Jan
That's interesting. I didn't know why Tylenol was the recommended product, but it's good to know!
ReplyDeleteWe always have to check out medicines due to my husband's heart problems. Always good to know what you can take safely.
ReplyDeleteSome of the side effects often sound so scary
ReplyDeleteYes I heard about this. Is scared !
ReplyDeleteI had no idea. This is important to know!
ReplyDeleteI know that someone that has GERD (acid reflux problems) needs to take acetomenaphin.
ReplyDeleteI knew there is one or the other peeps should avoid. Tricky, huh?!
