motrin use

Since c-diff is a disease of the "lower half", so to speak, we find that many of our members cannot refrain from discussing what comes out the bottom end. If you must do it, please do it here.

motrin use

Postby Jan » Mon Apr 21, 2008 5:53 pm

Hi all. Still tapering vanco and wondering if any one is taking motrin for pain or headaches while using vanco and having c diff?
I really need to take some thing for pain but afraid to down another pill in fear it may flare it up more.

Hi Jan,

I had the same thing happen to me when I was on Vanco. I had menstral Cramps and was afraid to take anything, so I called the Pharmacy and talked to the Pharmacist about taking Advil while on Vanco and he told me that it was fine.

I hope this helps and you start feeling better soon!

I took tylenol when I had C. diff. w/o a bad reaction. Your best bet is to call your doc. and/or pharmacist.

I take tylenol most of the time for headaches. I find that advil sometimes really upsets my stomach (not right then) but the next day.
