I'm told that Ibuprofen is a contradiction and as a longtime diabetic I have been cautioned against using this medication under any circumstance. There are potential risks of kidney damage and this warning includes dosing of any kind. My endocrinologist is excellent and I trust her completely!
I think you should get some professional help. There was absolutely no reason to make such hate-filled remarks.Please find out what your issue is and get some help before you hurt someone. Seriously.
type one diabetics are different from type two!! Take your myth, personal opinion and stick them up your arse. I bet you are a vegan, lesbian and over opinionated arsehole who shoves their opinion on anyone who looks half interested. Go back to sitting in your witches coven which consists of you and your fellow hemp smoking/wearing friends as I can tell you FIRST ******* HAND that ibuprofen does effect diabetics, no matter what your control and type is. Do a bit of research or better still ...wait till you have been diagnosed with diabetes for more than thirty two seconds
Hmmmm...never heard this one before...hope it's not true as being a professional dancer I've pretty much been on and off regular Ibprophen doses most of my life. I also take 800mg in combination with Tylenol to treat menstrual cramps and have done this for yrs at the advice of my Dr's.
I get my kidneys check every yr and there's no sign of damage. It all depends on the combination I suppose.
If your diabetes is not under control then you are going to be at a higher risk for kidney problems, add to this the supposed additional strain from taking NSAIDS and I guess you've got a recipe for disaster??
I'm definitely going to ask my Dr about this at my next visit.
I was told not to take ibuprofen because it would knock out my kidneys!
I was told by my nurse practitioner (essentially a family dr) that ibuprofen is metabolized through the kidneys, where as acetaminophen is metabolized through the liver. The concern is that the extra stress on the kidneys will cause issues.
My Mom was told this in the ER after she broke her leg... she was already a dialysis patient at that point, though.
OMG! I have heard this myth too many times!!!
I am a type 1 diabetic and take 800 mg ibuprofen to get through my horribly painful period and cramps.
As long as you do not take over 800mg in a 4-6 hour period, you are fine.
Anything you take will affect your body. That's why they are called "drugs."
