Advil is one of the best OTC medications for minor pains. It is effective and has no negative side effects (for me).

My daughter was very seriously sickened by this poison and the CDC and the Senators and Congressmen still say they consider the risks/reward ratio. Bull!

Doctor perscribed it for Strep. Literally almost had to crawl to the doctors office because I had gotten so sick and run down.
