How Long Should I Wait To Take Ibuprofen After Liver Biopsy?
Question: How long should I wait before I take Ibuprofen after Liver Biopsy?
Hi, thanks for using XXXXXXX
Because the liver is involved in the production of clotting factors and any liver problem may affect bleeding.
For this reason , it is normally advised that persons wait at least a week before using NSAIDS such as ibuprofen.
Analgesics such as paracetamol are preferred but if does not rsspond to this you may need stronger pain medixation such as opiates.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
