[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My pediatrician did give me Tylenol with codeine for cramps when I was 12, so it's not out of the realm of the possible that her friends have something prescription. HOWEVER, 600-800mg of Advil is a freakin' miracle drug. If you are concerned about dosages, talk to the doctor, but get her some help. I do not suggest the Tylenol as a first choice because it doesn't work on the mechanism causing the cramps; ibuprofen does. I'm not sure about Aleve (naproxen), though it's another NSAID and may work much like Advil.[/quote] Naproxene cause long term liver damage. Stick to Tylenol. If you are against any medication at all, then make her a milky cup of coffee and add 1/4 tsp turmeric in it. it will relieve inflammation but you need to take turmeric in warm water or milk every three hours or so, to keep the pain at pay. Seriously, Tylenol is safe. [/quote]
