Am I the only one that can't get past "Ibuprofen" in the title and his talk of Tylenol (Acetaminophen) in the text?<p>He would probably be better off taking ibuprofen for his wrists, assuming it is an inflammation problem.
It's worse than that -- regular Ibuprofen users are destroying their livers:<p>"The Effect of Ibuprofen on the Liver":<p><a href="http://www.ehow.com/about_5185317_effect-ibuprofen-liver.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.ehow.com/about_5185317_effect-ibuprofen-liver.htm...</a><p>A quote: "Hepatitis caused by ibuprofen is marked by abdominal pain and tenderness on the upper right side, dark-colored urine, diarrhea, headache, nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, fatigue, jaundice and white or clay-colored stool (NIH) ... The treatment for ibuprofen-induced liver damage is simply discontinuing use of the drug (NIH)."<p>So sayeth Captain Obvious.<p>To me, the problem is not prescription drugs that should be freely available, it's freely available drugs that should be prescription.
