Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have high blood pressure….what is best over/counter pain reliever for me? Should I use Aleve…..Advil…or just plain aspirin? With all due respect, I can call my local pharmacist and get this answer for FREE. This is a very basic question that should not cost me $15.00 plus. Thank you.
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
yes you may take any one of these, i.e Aleve or Advil. Both are good and doesn't have any risks for hypertensive patients until unless you are allergic to.
But I will not recommend Aspirin for you without complete physical examination and medical history in mind.
Hope I answered all of your health concerns . If you have further questions in future, feel free to contact me anytime. In the start of your question write my name, and I will get back to you in no time. If satisfied, please click you found it helpful.
Have a wonderful time ahead.
Best Regards!
