What Can I Take For A Headache?

What did anyone's doc tell you to take for a headache? Does it have to be a liquid?

I do powder. Can't get stuck on that. Hope you feel better soon

I take tylenol just the was it is. You might want to ask the pharmacist. I just stay away from motrin it can be rough on the stomach. Good luck!

I take Tylenol (store brand) quick release gel caps with no problem.

my NP said Tylenol 325mg would be fine. I also bought adult liquid Tylenol.

Mine said advil was fine...if I had trouble with the pills, just use liquid. I dont have a problem with the Advil or Tylenol.

The best thing for any headache is water and no screen (TV and computer!)...but on occasion I do take liquid or chewable advil. but I have never had any stomach problems. Tylenol is better if you have ever had ulcers or gastritis.

this is what id like to know as well.. i have issues with joint pain. i did read somewhere that the gas that causes some issues afterwoods can also cause some joint pain as well. i really need to be able to take some pain meds that are liquid. not sure what we can buy here in australia. im going to have to talk with my chemist about that one. also, i take olmetec, which is meds for hypertension. its in tablet form and it gives me mild indigestion now.. so i dont know how well its goign to go down after surgery. i have to take two tabs a day. i was thinking i would need to crush them .. does anyone else have to do this?? there must be a lot of people who have this surgery who cant swallow whole tabs.. at least in the short term after surgery. Any input for this one please?? any suggestions for liquid pain meds as well?? hugs judych
