Medicine question - need help

[Newlife4me 0]

Okay, I know that we are not suppose to use aleave and advil, etc. but when it is "that time of the month", will pamperine hurt anything? Have got major issues with this "time" and am in a lot of pain and need to take something for the cramps. Any suggestions on medicines that will not hurt the band? Thanks!

Obviously you need to check with your own doctor as to what he/she requires, but I asked this very question on my 2 week check up a couple weeks ago. I get terrible cramps and need advil (generic) for 2 days a month....he said to go ahead with it, that it was no big deal. I was surprised - but he said he just doesn't want you to use them ALL month long. This was my doc's advice......

An occasional NSAID (OTC pain killer) is not going to hurt anything. Key word being "occasional." It is vitally important that you have a glass of something with this to wash it out of your pouch.
