Hello, Stephenie! How are you?

This is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so it is fine to take as needed, unless your doctor has specified otherwise. Its side effects many include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
