“Too often, consumers just want the pain to go away, so they take more medicine than the label instructs, and they don’t talk to their doctor about possible risks,” says Linda Golodner, president of the National Consumers League. “But just because a medication is available without a prescription doesn’t mean it’s risk-free.”
The reality is that, largely, consumers don’t understand the potential risks involved with the misuse of OTC non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs. Use of OTC NSAIDs increases the risk of stomach bleeding by two to three times, and the most serious side effects can occur without warning symptoms.
If you’re suffering from chronic pain and you feel like your only salvation is an OTC painkiller, you should discuss these issues with your doctor or chiropractor. Together you can decide what treatments might be good alternatives and would benefit you in the long run. Chronic problems are better resolved when you can focus on the root cause of the symptoms.
