The danger is no worse than before you read the article. And it’s very minimal with one dose of ibuprofen a day. Ibuprofen also has the anti-platelet effect, albeit short-lived and only for a few days, that aspirin (antiplatelet for the life of platelets in circulation when you take it) and naproxyn (a few day’s antiplatelet effect).

The article is a single report on *how* something happens. And, as you thought, it’s an action that we’ve known about for awhile.

I wouldn’t change your routine - in fact, I take Celebrex about once or twice a week.

Talk to your doctor before changing, especially when news like this comes out.

Sounds like good advice. Taming severe pain to moderate is my daily goal.
