I tend to grab Advil Liquid Gels. Most of my pain is muscular or swelling....so it works fast and effectively for me. What do you use?
What is your "go to" pain reliever?

For headaches I use Excedrin Headache, for regular body aches I use Bayer Back and Body.

Lately been using alleve.
12/26/2012
mostly Advil

I really do not tolerate severe pain very well, so when it's bad enough that I'd take anything, it'll more likely be a prescription pain medication.
12/26/2012
Advil or generic
12/26/2012
For headaches I take BC powders....I don't take otc medicines for other pains unless they're really severe, in which case I probably have a prescription.

Pururin
Advil. I usually get the liquid gels if I can find them, though I always keep the solid/regular ones in my car.

For me it used to be Advil, but it did a number on my stomach, so now all I get is Tylenol. It's wimpy.
For bad pain (like kidney stones), I take my Lortabs! It's not wimpy!

Ibuprofen...good ole vitamin I.
12/26/2012
I used to take Tylenol, but lately it hasn't been strong enough for me. So, lately, it's been Ibuprofen.

A massage!
12/26/2012
i use Advil
12/26/2012
Good old ibuprofen.
12/26/2012
I used to use ibuprofen but my doctor recently took me off all medications.
12/26/2012
I like Excedrin.
12/26/2012
Depends on the pain. If it's menstrual cramps then I start with my heating pad, then red raspberry leaf tea, and then if I still feel like crap I take ibuprofen. For a stress headache I try different essential oils like lavender or jasmine. So really it totally depends on the different type of pain.
12/26/2012
generic Ibuprofen.
12/26/2012
My go to cure for a headache is a warm compress, or a hot bath.
12/26/2012
I usually take some brand of ibuprofen but since I've been getting so many headaches recently I think I'm developing a slight tolerance for it because it doesn't seem to be working as well anymore And Tylenol doesn't really help too much either, so I don't know what I'm going to do now.
12/26/2012
WHISKEY!!!
12/26/2012
Ibuprofen, though I may switch to Rod's method.....

I don't take medications. I very rarely will take anything prescribed from my Dr or over the counter. I have to be in a lot of pain or really sick. Otherwise, I am toughing it out. If I have a headache, upset stomach, back pain, PMS, or anything of the like...I take a few bowl hits of my sweet herb and I am giggling and forgetting what is wrong with me within minutes. If I am too sick...then it makes me fall asleep after I eat and drink a little. So, it's my cure all. Of course, I can't use it for everything (infection), but it's my preferred pain reliever.

I don't take anything normally; a hot bath, a bunch of water and a nap fix most things. If it's really bad and I've got stuff to do I'll take Motrin or Ibuprofen.
12/27/2012
When I need pain relief - which is rare, I prefer Aleve, but will take Motrin/Advil if the Aleve is not available.
12/27/2012
I just use ibuprofen as well, but rarely. Most of my pain aside from cramps (which it doesn't work for, sadly) tends to come from headaches, which generally means I missed a meal or a med.
