A woman oral surgeon who removed my wisdom tooth with no pain during surgery recommended combined pain medication for pain.
I think the combination was acetaminophen and ibuprofen.
There was pain afterward, for which I should have headed home to take medication for.
I have combined those two for years……very effective .
.
My dentist told me the same thing.
“I think the combination was acetaminophen and ibuprofen.”
That is my regimen now that I am off opioids. I take a Duexus, which is 800 mg of ibuprofen and three Tylenol. Works like a champ.
