      Taking it every day wears away your stomach and intestinal lining and you could get ulcers. Also generally it’s not just one, it’s 3-4. Sometimes multiple times a day.

        My aunt actually had this happen went brain dead from the loss of blood when a huge ulcer popped. She was in the hospital for a lung biopsy when it happened it was pretty terrible and it was later concluded ibuprofen was the most likely cause.

        yeah i mean if you have significant issues with migraines you prob shouldnt be taking it every day but rather finding a more permanent solution, also is that only ibuprofen? what about acetaminophen or nsaids
