Quick question - In GREAT tooth pain - took 2 IBurofen at 1.15pm can I take some Paracetamol at 3.15pm ?

I only had Iburofen , now have got some Paracentamol - am in real discomfort - going to dentist tomorrow .

yes, also rinse your mouth out with hot salty water

thank you

Yes. I have always advised alternating paracetamol and Ibuprofen at 2 hourly intervals (make sure each is just the one ingredient not mixed with anything else.

Yu could take the paracetaml now.

But you still couldn't have the next lot of ibuprofen til 5.15 at the earliest.

I've checked that they are not mixed ingredients.
