Default Post for the girls

Quick question girls, I was wondering if I can take Midol. I started PMSing this morning and I'm cramping really bad today. I'm also so bloated its not even funny right now. I was wondering if anyone knows about this or not.

Thanks for the help.

Default Midol,

Is'n't Midol an NSAID - an anti-inflamatory? What's the major ingredient? Is it ibuprofin?

Default Midol - is an Nsaid

Midol is on the no-no list. Per Kelly, when it comes to Nsaids you can take them once in awhile, like one or two days out of the month. You can not take them frequently as they can cause ulcers. If in doubt give Kelly a call.
