    I'm surprised you weren't instructed to take Tylenol rather than Advil. Read the label and don't take more that it says to take. That's what it's there for.

    Read the packet - generally you can take 2 ibuprofen every 4 hours.
    It's only really a problem for your stomach which can be upset by this drug but it doesn't affect everyone adversely.
    You can also mix aspirin /parecetemol with ibuprofen if you need more painkiller, without any adverse effects.
    Spent a long time recovering from back surgery so have some experience of pain management.
