Pain relief stronger than aspirin in preps

[SoJer]

another pain is constipation.... if you do have some heavy duty prescription pain meds they can also slow down your system and cause stoppages.

Aye, pretty much All the 'Opiates' are infamous for that.. Some worse than others..

[...The average price of an albuterol inhaler without insurance is around $98 for an 8.5 gram inhaler.]
So multiply that X15, and subtract $100.

Holy Smackerel! Cheapest I could find (online) was about $40. (plus shipping, etc) Which Still eclipses that One cruise ya listed, but.. $98. each, youch!

US "healthcare" borders on a Criminal Enterprise, really.. (and I don't mean the Docs / Nurses / EMS, etc.. I mean the "Execs" / Industry, as a whole.. 'Big pHarma', etc, etc.. 🤬

Y'all remember that aspirin is an anti-coagulant. So not the best choice for pain relief if you have something that is bleeding internally. You can end up with hemotomas and bruises and swelling that are worse than they would be with Tylenol. Personally, I only use aspirin for headaches. I would not use it for trauma. But often times I use Tylenol for headaches instead.

I could get along without aspirin totally, except for one use. Should someone develop chest pains (possible heart attack) and you are stuck where you are without medical help, I'd pop an aspirin. The blood-thinning characteristic can help with coronary artery blockages.

But then, you would not want to take aspirin for a hemorrhagic stroke (although it would be OK for an occlusive stroke - but you couldn't tell the difference in the field). With a hemorrhagic stroke you're bleeding into your head - you don't want to bleed even more. So for a headache that you suspect might be a stroke, stay away from the aspirin.

I use Tylenol for traumatic injuries (twisted ankle, falling and getting banged up, etc.) Advil or Aleve is my choice for muscular problems (back pain and stuff like that). But everybody is different and different drugs work better or worse on each individual.

I was gonna do Jardiance® but you did a much better job.
One month of Jardiance out of pocket costs us American-sheeple $550-$650. In Mexico, $35.
Will one year's worth get 2 people a 'free cruise'?
For the mathematically-impaired:
12 x $600=$7,200 - 12 x $35=$420 = $6,780 for a cruise.
How damfar were you gonna go?!!!
