Answer #1

yes it could. you could get addicted to it and it could be harsh on some of your internal organs.

Answer #2

I dont I was just wondering

Answer #3

I was told by my doctor that taking a pain reliever or even cold medicine too often can make it less effective. So eventually it wouldn’t help you feel any better, you would need something stronger and even more harsh on your body.

And yes, that type of pain reliever can be very hard on your kidneys and harsh on your stomach as well. I would just take it when you feel like the pain you’re in is too much for you to just shake off. That would be the safe and better bet.

Answer #4

Ibuprofen is hard on your kidneys and blood pressure.

Answer #5

You could adapt a dependency on it.
