摘要
Acute episodes of tension-type headache (TTH) are common and affect people of all ages, races and income levels. Two recommended and commonly used drugs for the treatment of this condition are ibuprofen and paracetamol (1). However, despite - or perhaps because of - their widespread use, many misconceptions persist about their comparative efficacy and safety. Are concerns about the gastrointenstinal (GI) safety of ibuprofen justified in the non-prescription over-the-counter (OTC) setting? Do low doses of ibuprofen - as used for TTH - increase the risk of heart attacks? Is the efficacy of ibuprofen and paracetamol really the same?
