Hello Dear,
Advil is best good luck!
It may depend on what other medications you are taking if any, the kind of pain and its location in your body, and whether you have stomach conditions or not which may complicate the digestion of the medication or whether you have problems with clots for example. Consult with your physician or see Webb M.D. on the Internet. Be aware that many people overdose using pain medications each year. Whatever you take follow the directions carefully and only take as directed. Advil, Tylenol was just on the news about kindey problems or something along those lines
Both advil and tylenol work fine with me, but for pain caused by inflammation I turn to old-fashioned aspirin. It's noticeably more effective for inflammation.
Advil! Advil is one of my best friends in the whole wide world.
If the pain is inflamatory, Aleve.
Headaches ~ Tylenol
Everything else ~ Advil
Have water and maybe a bit of food since you don't want to take any of them on an empty stomach.
I find Excedrin works for almost anything. I have back problems, arthritis and headaches. Excedrin works on them all. I get the non-aspirin kind.
