2. the risk of ibuprofen

3. p1 : Painkillers you can get without a prescriptionlike acetaminophen, as well as
ibuprofen, naproxen, and other so-called non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
(NSAIDs)are generally pretty safe.
P2: More studies are documenting harms from the consistent use of NSAIDs,
especially before or after workouts to ease sore muscles and reduce joint pain.
P3: The heart isn't the only thing at risk.
P4: Some people take the medications before long runs or gym sessions to try to
prevent sore muscles, while others take them immediately after a workout to reduce
inflammation in joints.
4. supporting idea
p1: Thats why they are available over the counter.
P2: Studies have found that high doses of NSAIDs increased risk for heart attack and
other heart problems by one third; ibuprofen, in particular, more than doubled the risk
of a major heart event.
P3: When researchers studied more than 55,000 women in the Nurses Health Study,
they found that people who regularly used NSAIDs over six years had a 10% higher
risk of developing hearing loss compared to people who didn't use the drugs or took
them less often.
P4: But in a study published in 2016, scientists found that doing so may actually
promote bone breaks.
5. Conclution
Painkillers you can get without a prescription like acetaminophen, ibuprofen,
naproxen, and other called non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). More
studies are documenting harms from the consistent use of NSAIDs, especially before
or after workouts to ease sore muscles and reduce joint pain. Doctors are learning that
regular reliance on the painkillers may contribute to serious and surprising health
issues. High doses of NSAIDs increased risk for heart attack, developing hearing
loss, and may actually promote bone breaks.
