Respectfully, no, it's not.
“My doctor tells me to switch between acetaminophen and ibuprofen.”
“The problem is that the ibuprofen is an anti-inflamitory and acetaminophen is not.”
Your physician is correct, that ibuprofen has anti-inflammatory properties, and acetaminophen does not.
Aspirin and ibuprofen (and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) have effect on platelets and coagulation. That's why aspirin is prescribed for patients at risk for stroke or myocardial infarction. The way in which aspirin effects platelets and clotting is different than the effect of ibuprofen and other drugs of this class. That is why there is concern regarding heart disease. That said, this data appears to be overstated, and the data will require further scrutiny at this point.
