I have a severe toothache after filling it today at the dentist. Ibuprofen taken 2 hours ago does not help. Can I take naproxen or are there any contraindications? Is such pain the norm after treatments?

Do not combine several drugs from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (such as ibuprofen, naproxen) due to the possibility of increasing the risk of side effects such as m.in gastrointestinal bleeding. If the pain persists, you can alternate the preparation with paracetamol. These drugs are available in pharmacies without a prescription. Here you can compare the prices of these drugs in online pharmacies and order the drug with home delivery or collection at the pharmacy: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/5684/apap-tabletki-powlekane/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/26254/efferalgan-tabletki-musujace/apteki

In the event that the pain does not go away, I encourage you to consult a dentist.
