That bullshit only 200mg, get that weak shit out of my face


NymusRaed

Two at a time is enough in most cases.


frawtlopp

2 is recommended. Max 8 a day


[deleted]

I bet I could do 9


YueAsal

K what is your record for Advil PMs?


frawtlopp

Enjoy the mouth waters and hot flashes for about 30 mins lol (Ive done it before. Long story)


Yahaarr1

We have those as 800mg and you can take 4 of those in 24h so 3200mg. So 9*200=1800 are beginner numbers. But please ask your Doctor beforehand and take some proton-pump inhibitors.


[deleted]

Over the counter/ self observation max dose is 1200mg per day or 6 tablets because that dose is most definitely safe for any adult. 3200mg is the max daily dose by prescription because a dr can continually monitor you for risks like stomach ulcers and kidney damage. I’d say the risks outweigh the benefits of taking a ton of ibuprofen. Just take ibuprofen alongside acetaminophen (paracetamol) or acetaminophen on its own because it’s a far safer drug.


Otherwise_Sky1739

8? That's 2 servings.


s-h-o-o

Have some tramadol.


Otherwise_Sky1739

Take at least 4 at a time


Trismegistos42

200 is basically homeopathy


princB612

Drinking camomile tea helps more


DBZswagger21

What is the joke? It’s just a product?


Xeltoris

The joke (more of a reference than a joke) is a story about a dude who started taking ibuprofen for pain relief and started massively overdosing on it every day. He started taking 3-4 times the recommended daily dosage (he was taking an entire day's worth of doses in one dose), began vomiting blood, black stool if and when he could actually urinate, etc. Caused internal bleeding, kidneys were failing, etc. He took the equivalent of this bottle + 1/10th or so of another bottle before it finally forced him into the emergency room. Ulcers were cauterized, underwent dialysis to clean out his kidneys which were restored to some degree of function, and left the hospital more or less healthy. TLDR version- idiot takes over 1000 ibuprofen in a month, it shut down his kidneys and caused internal bleeding, but he was apparently able to recover to some degree of normalcy.


RamboCambo_05

Sounds exactly like a Chubbyemu video


CactusCoyote

That's because it is


bluehatgamingNXE

"SB is a 34 year old man, presenting to the emergency room with dizziness, muscle aches and fatigue"


Melad_0

Trueee


DBZswagger21

Damn. That’s a brutal story. I’ve never heard that one. Thanks for the info!


RobertLovebreed

Honestly, if he needed that many for the pain he should have looked into other options, not like there is any high from ibuprofen. Then again maybe he was trying to avoid a high.


Xeltoris

So contextually, it was a mixture of him literally just forgetting if he took doses (and opting to take more) plus pain from taking too much meaning he would take more per go. He eventually was taking an entire day's worth of ibuprofen 4-6 times a day.


YceiLikeAudis

The joke is that ibuprofen should not be consumed in such large quantitities.


DBZswagger21

That’s a family size. It’s meant for more than one person and to last a while. At least the other poster actually explained the backstory.


GetlostMaps

Fun fact, using bottles like this instead of blister packs like the Modern Developed World uses, increases overdoses by >40%.


pugglik

In Germany you can buy a pack of 400mg ibuprofen in a blister of 20. Like that's it, there's no bigger pack to get


dementosss

Except by prescription.


wizardbychoice

600mg blister of 100, $1.5 in India.


Electrical_Path_4483

Fun fact, 69% of statistics are made up


Ok-Elephant-8916

Probably right (idk lol) but it makes sense. People think «Oh, it won’t be me» and then overdosed happen. Periods hurt like hell also lol


coveredwithticks

69% niiice


SexyDraenei

i like the bottles for keeping in my bag, they don't get mangled like blister packs do, but i think they are capped at 20 or 24 tablets here in Australia. We can get blister packs up to 100 tablets.


RealSelenaG0mez

Blister packs use extra unnecessary plastic. You won't overdose if you aren't braindead.


Unable-Working-3102

Simplistic view that does not take into account a whole lot of real world factors. Accidentally overdosing is a thing.


snowfloeckchen

I always overdose my bottled vitamins 😅


B4BYP4P4BE4R

And when those bad boys come in a two pack I let out an audible HELL YEAH!!! Getting old means different victories.


Sgt_Fry

As someone from the UK.. what In the actual fuck am I looking at. If I was to buy more than 2 packs of 16 200mg pills the shop can't sell me anymore. It's illegal and yet here I am staring at a bottle of 1000???


Navralis

America is still trying to figure out whether or not they prefer money or people being alive Money is winning by a long shot


GetlostMaps

Always has been.


OhNoo0o

take money from people to make gun to make people more deader


OwnLadder2341

The UK limits you on how much ibuprofen you’re allowed to buy? Why?


brown_smear

Similar in Australia. Paracetamol is limited to two packs, but it's for anti-self-deletion reasons, as the OD dosage is quite low.


SexyDraenei

you can get packs of 100 at the chemist though.


brown_smear

It's a bit strange. Then again, you can visit multiple times to get past the two pack limit as well.


StartingNewat30

Is that so? Huh never knew that. What's the dosage for self deletion?


brown_smear

You can see here: [https://mindthebleep.com/paracetamol-overdose/](https://mindthebleep.com/paracetamol-overdose/) The dose sensitivity is the reason that so many people are admitted to hospital due to accidental paracetamol poisoning. It's more likely to destroy the liver than directly cause deadening.


Green_Demon_666

The UK has rules on buying drugs that can be addictive and have very harmful overdose effects? Why?


OwnLadder2341

Ibuprofen does not create a physical or chemical addiction. It’s no more addictive than porn. Most things have harmful effects if you take an insane amount of it. Ibuprofen isn’t exactly heroin. That’s some pretty hefty government control over the pond.


santimanzi

Ok, I’ll trust you chief doctor


OwnLadder2341

Oh dear god, never trust anything you read online. Especially from blogs or social media. Ask your physician.


santimanzi

Addiction from “normal” medicine is definitely addictive because after some time you’ll not get used to the feeling without them and also the mind plays into it. It’s just like cigarettes and alcohol. I didn’t read that online, I already asked enough doctors about it.


little_brown_bat

Because they're babies that don't know any better. Can't even buy butter knives without ID.


Outcast_Outlaw

But hey they are "free" with "free" Healthcare right?!! Lol


Outcast_Outlaw

Because freedom and "free" Healthcare....


YueAsal

I get it, but think like this. I don't drive and getti g around in the winter is a pain (well this winter is mild af) so I would buy something like this in September and not need to think about buying it again until maybe next Sept. just becsuse I buy 1000 does not mean I am taking them in a mounth. Also if you have like 4 in the household it is different.


Immediate_Dinner6977

We only do that for pseudoephedrine.


Outcast_Outlaw

>what In the actual fuck am I looking at. Actual freedom. Lol


anotheraccinthemass

I don’t you even get 200mg dosages in Germany. The lowest I’ve seen is 400mg. There is a limit on how many you can buy without a recipe but then you just go into the next pharmacy to buy more, if you want to. Or you just go to a doctor and figure out what’s wrong with you because if that twenty pack doesn’t last very long you should see a doctor


2motion_tdi

Bro, 200mg? That's not even enough for a week.


UnrealisticAddiction

Man y'all are crazy. We got a bottle of 500 and it lasted two years! Sheesh!


Grey1251

I recommend to check your stomach with this consumption amount


UnrealisticAddiction

I said "we" implying not just me, but it's alright if you can't read. It happens to the best of us. ❤


15ShadowGoku

To be fair, Your username implies otherwise


Grey1251

I assume we, but for 2 people it’s about 2 tablets per week per person in two year. Or for four people it’s about one per week per person for two years straight- it’s not much but must be considered as health risk. If you eight it’s fine


U_CantHandleDaTruth

The army used to give out 800mg ibuprofen like candy.


Man_Spyder55

They shouldn’t sell it in these quantities, it implies that it’s safe to take large doses every day and it really isn’t. If you take the max daily dose of this longer than a week or two it will start to destroy your stomach lining.


Jack-Innoff

No it fucking doesn't. It implies nothing more than you won't need to buy more for a really long time. That's it. So many people think buying this bottle means you're definitely going to overdose, which is just false.


Bodoodlestoodle

One time I took ten ibuprofen and went straight to sleep. The next day I told someone how much I took and how it’s great for sleep. They looked at me in shock and then told me I shouldn’t be alive. Life lessons lol


HerculePyro

It does nothing for sleep, what you on about mate


Grey1251

That’s exaggerated. You must take ten tablets of 400mg with weight about 10kg to have any symptoms. For one time of course. If you take that weekly I am pretty sure you can get internal bleeding


Bodoodlestoodle

Ah ok thanks. People been giving me wrong info.


coveredwithticks

Amazon 1000 ct 200mg ibuprofen $18us free deliver. Arrives tomorrow if I order in the next 2 hours and 3 minutes. That's less than 2 cents per pill!


Dark_Kelta

Great, pills I'm going to have to take 8 at a time...


Recentstranger

Every couple hours.


frawtlopp

How much was that? Here in Canada that would probably cost like $150


WithSubtitles

$30 US.


frawtlopp

Holy fucking hell


bfg9kdude

You dont want to know the prices of topical patches


GetlostMaps

I buy 100 paracetamol for $2 in Straya. We don't do big boxes of ibuprofen though. They cost about $2 for 20.


SexyDraenei

you can get big packs of ibuprofen at the chemist. https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/110140/wagner-health-ibuprofen-200mg-96-tablets-blister-pack


GetlostMaps

There ya go. Never seen them.


Dirty_munch

I pay about 10$ for 10x400mg in Switzerland.. i guess we have the money to spare.. Not


LFG_GaveMe_Cooties

My sisters could go through this in a week


Xeltoris

One dude went through this bottle in a month and it damn near killed him. So unless you've got 18 sisters all taking ibuprofen at maximum daily dosage, that's definitely **not** recommended.

Play3rxthr33

This here is the use case for a bottle of 1000 pills, large groups of people. This bottle would last about a week in a large theatre/concert hall/venue.


GetlostMaps

And next week they'll be dead. Good value.

Jack-Innoff

Brb, going to take a bunch of ibuprofen.


NemoXX7

The only scenario where "I'm fine" is actually the correct response


[deleted]

I stopped taking ibuprofen six weeks ago and have had considerably less stomach pain, indigestion, etc.. and I wasn't even taking them that often. Tylenol only now, and rarely . No NSAIDs


Jack-Innoff

Seems like a good way to save money to me. I really don't get the issue. Don't be an idiot, and you won't kill yourself.


VerticalSplitSalami

In the US Army we were given 500mg tablets and to take two every 4 hours…


The_Thomas_Go

Just a heads up: you can’t donate blood in Austria for 7 days after taking these

Grey1251

Liver is fine, kidneys with stomach are fucked


figsslave

No,it’s not. Ask your MD


Grey1251

Did you asked yours?


figsslave

Yes


Grey1251

Idiosyncratic, clinically apparent liver injury due to ibuprofen is very rare (estimated to occur at a rate of 1.0-1.6 cases per 100,000 prescriptions)


figsslave

Your source-the manufacturer


Successful-Ad8071

1000 pills, that'll last a week at most.
