Is Motrin-200 Advisable For Multiple Sclerosis?
I have a headache behind my right eye that extends to my right temple. It is is a nagging constant pain. my neurologist had told me (I have MS) that if I had pain, I could take up to 4 200mg Motrin at one time for pain and that would be equal to one prescription. So this is what I have been taking for my head. Regular pain medication usually makes me sick is why I started doing this for pain. This Motrin regiment is what I have been doing for my head. Is there a better option?

Hello,
You can use up to 3 Motrin every 4 to 6 hours. 4 tables are too much. You can combine acetaminophen and ibuprofen every three hours.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
