    Thank you very much. I'm almost 75, I have left knee paining for almost a year, tried all kinds of remedies, but pain subsided a little and walking better with Ibuprofen. Thank you Bob, Brad and Chris.

    Dr. Chris looking at them while they are saying/doing their intro, and he thinks when they will be done cause he can't hold this laugh anymore :D .. I really love the intro and the videos, subbed recently and watching any video adds to my knowledge, much love <3

    Informative video. One correction in your listing of ibuprofen names: Bufferin is not ibuprofen--it is aspirin, 325 mg, with buffering agents calcium and magnesium. Thanks.

    I was advised to take Ibuprofen when I had injured shoulder tendons but it no effect whatsoever, went through a variety of prescription drugs ending with high dose Endone but still not much help with pain. Finally in desperation I worked out 1/2 a bottle of neat rum did the trick, it either dulled the pain or knocked me out so I could sleep. I sort of count rum as a "natural" remedy not a drug. Your YouTube stuff is great, very informative, I love how you are "the most famous PTs on the Internet, in our opinion, of course" - love it.

    I was in a serious accident back in 1991, after a few weeks in the hospital the doctor put me on ibuprofen. I thought it was safe. I had total knee replacement in May 2018, I did not want to take the opioid medication, I went with ibuprofen. Bad idea. The past week, Jan 26th, I was hospitalized with a server GI Bleed. When the GI doctor finally showed up the first thing he asks me. "Do I take any of the NSAID or aspirin?" A. Yes! He took me off of both. The doctor in the hospital said they were seeing more and more GI bleeds even in young people 20 and up. I have been on a steady diet of ibuprofen for almost 27 years.

    Ibuprofen has been recommended to stop uterine bleeding..like 600 mg during the day for prolonged period of time till ceasing. Isn't that unsafe?
  • @user-nu1kb5pv3l
    Very good controlled discussion with nobody shouting anyone else down. All very clear and it has to be said good objective information. Viewing from the UK and it's good to know all the extra information about Ibuprofen that you never read in the information leaflets that come with the tablets. I found this very useful indeed.
  • Did I miss the part about no NSAIDS for Chronic Congestive Heart Failure? That's the first thing they told me when I woke up in ICU after a heart attack that left heart damage. They told me I'd have chronic Congestive Heart Failure for the rest of my life and could never take Ibuprofen or any other NSAID again because it would negate all my heart medicines. Might want to add another video to your list to talk with that pharmacist again... about NSAIDs, high blood pressure and heart conditions again. Most people who take meds for high blood pressure... and those with high blood pressure who don't realize they have high blood pressure... don't realize how dangerous ibuprofen is to them... and how it can be the catalyst to pushing that BP problem into a full-fledged heart problem, heart attack or worse. Just saying... y'all not finished with this Vitamin-I series yet.
