Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Dear both are NSAIDS may can cause peptic ulcers , kidney damage, elevation of blood pressure etc..
There is no relation like if you take more drugs and early recovery. It will take its own time to recover so . Better to avoid it why because usually twice a day dose is sufficient.
If symptoms not improved please consult your treating doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care.
