Answers: braces, pain..... need painkillers and want to know about ibuprofen

yeah - your teeth hurt lol

sorry :)

yes it's like asprin or tylenol

yes you can..children at 12 can take ibuprofen.

yes i used it when i was 14, but you have to be prescribed, but i took it anyway since my brother had some

Sure, Ibuprofen is just Motrin. Over the counter analgesic just like tylenol.

absolutely. read the back of the bottle. it depends on how much you weigh is why they give ages on it. if you look like an adult, as in weight and height, i suggest taking two. good luck.

y not?

yes. take two. braces suck! i bet you just had them tightened.... take three.

yes usually you can take any adult medication at age 12 and up

im pretty sure BUT to be on the safe side - u should check the back label of a bottle of ibuprofen ( THE PART WHERE IT TELL THE DOSAGE FOR EACH AGE) and also ask you Dr. or parents because you might be allergic to it-hope i helped-good luck! :)

of course you can.

yes up to 400mg every 4-6 hr

Yes there is no reason why you cant take it. But remember you have to take ibuprofen after you have eaten something.

Of course you can, I am sure that you have taken Advil before which is just a brand name of ibuprofen. It is not unsafe as long as you follow the directions, if you take three when it says two it won't hurt you, but over time it can give you a bleed in your stomache (this is very rare and happens mostly with people who pop it like candy). If you are still unsure about this, ask your parents or take children's tylenol (which is just a lower dose of acetaminophen, the active ingredient in tylenol)

course you can .
you can have ibruprofen tablets at 12. but if you dont feel comfortable with that, just take some ibruprofen suspension medicine for younger children. like... nurofen medicine. young babies can take that so it will deffo be safe for you.
