RE: Since Ibuprofen Kills Thousands Each Year, What are The Natural Alternatives?
Long term, high dose use of anything is probably bad for you. I mean you can kill yourself by drinking too much water and just a short term high dose can do that. The problem isn't Ibuprofen, the problem is that it was taken in high doses for a long time.
Ibuprofen is not good for you, period. Having worked in the medical manufacturing industry for 9.5 yrs, I have witnessed numerous recalls before the product were released to market, due to supplier quality issues and the precursors being impostor. Try reading the FDA pink, white and yellow sheets if you get bored.
The specific things you mention (manufacturing problems in the early days of the drugs existence) have nothing to do with how dangerous Ibuprofin is today. All I'm saying is that if you have a headache and you take an ibuprofen for it, it isn't going to decrease your quantity or quality of life. If you are popping them 6 at a time are taking them every day for long periods of time then it may very well cause you harm. That's true of lots of most things.
Awesome to get insider experience shared here, thank you!
