REPORT

Can someone tell me the difference between Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen, and Tylenol? Besides Gabapentin I am taking Ibuprofen (NSAID) 4 xs (2 x 200 mg) every day but it’s not strong enough to keep up the pain on days it hits really fast and hard. I have a high tolerance for pain and am not backing off of OT.

They are not equivalent.

Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and Acetaminophen is an analgesic and antipyretic, however, Vicodin contains the narcotic Hydrocodone with Acetaminophen, so they just aren't comparable.

Additionally, both the Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen can be toxic and cause a fatal overdose, if you take too much, so trying to take more and more of them to relieve pain is not advisable.

You can learn more Acetaminophen details here and you can learn more Ibuprofen details here and you can learn more Vicodin details here.

Is there anything else I can help with?
