Heck, I started getting migraines in my teens. I also had bathroom ibuprofen, bedstand ibuprofen, in my backpack, in all of my different coats, in the car, and in my locker. Eventually I even got my wife to carry a bottle in her purse. I learned how to swallow four 200 mg pills without liquid. Anyone who gets regular migraines knows not to take chances!

Be sure to hydrate well when taking NSAIDS like IB. It's important for the health of your kidneys.

Ibuprofen kills the kidneys, paracetamol the liver, and ASA the stomach. Prescription-free doesn't mean harmless. IIRC then drinking large amounts of water helps against headaches anyway.

 

[berkeman]

Prescription-free doesn't mean harmless.

Yeah, I learned from a sports Doc at a triathlon I was working that we should never give out IB to the athletes, because the combination of dehydration from the event and the vasoconstriction of the NSAID is a double-whammy for the kidneys. Once we explained to the athletes why we weren't giving them NSAIDS, they were usually fine with taking some alternative (like Tylenol).

Oh it was worse than that. I was getting 6 migraines a week, 12 to 14 hour duration. I had to take a dose of ibuprofen at the first sign of pain, then again every four hours because if it wore off I was done for. (I really hated the days I woke up with one.) None of the usual prescribed medications had much of an effect and things like the barbiturate derivative they had me on for a time didn't do any better than OTC.

Fortunately (and mysteriously) they started to disappear shortly after I turned 30. I still get one, once in a while, but the pain level is only mild. Thankfully, no liver damage. Yay!

According to the Chinese, I live an "interesting" life.

Migraines are still a mystery. They are a very special (and annoying) kind of headache.

My mentor at the university suffered from it. He said he inherited it from his mother. His mother once called her doctor to give her a shot against migraines and the doctor replied: "Isn't your son a doctor? Why don't you ask him to give you a shot?"

And no, this wasn't a joke. He told me the story exactly like that.
