[Schadenfroh]

[Insane3D]

[zixxer]

I've decided that a red bull and jager might fix it

 

[z0mb13]

low blood pressure??

 

[MidasKnight]

brain aneurysm ?

 

[virtueixi]

Get your head outta your ass!

 

[cirthix]

whenever i have a headache (i have sinus problems and migranes too http://forums.anandtech.com/i/ratingicons/sad.gif
sad.gif ), it gets much worse when i stand up. it must have something to do with blood flow, balance, or pressure. my brother says that it may also be neck muscles. i just lay down and take a nap when i have a headache

GOD I hate people who mix a supposedly "energy" drink with liquor. You won't catch a real liquor drinker mixing sh!t like that.

"Oh look how cool and hip I am I'm drinking a Red Bull then taking Jager shots, got any E?"

 

[MegaWorks]

[waggy]

You're dehydrated.

I ahte headrushes. its cauesed by low blood pressure. strange that I get them all the time and Im 16

 

[Rob9874]

I'd go see a doctor. It has to do with the change of blood flow to the head. I would be concerned about aneurysm or stroke.

 

[Operandi]

dude its a brain tumor, I just saw banner ad about em this morning, it must be brain tumor season.....

If I find it again I take a screenshot of it and hook you up, I might save your life brain turmors are pretty serious I think.

if its a persistant headache try excedrin migraine. advil only contains acemetaphin, but most migraine formulas combine acemetaphin+asprin+caffeine. dont know why they use caffeine, doesnt seem necessary. just dont use it if u plan to sleep within the next 8 hrs

the problem with acemetaphin is that it can cause liver damage if u take over 3000 pills over ur lifetime (rush limbaugh style). however asprin is good for the heart.

Ok...first off, the only pain reliever that has Acetaminophen is Tylenol. Advil, Motrin, etc, are Ibuprofen. The only other type of analgesic is Naproxyn Sodium, in products like Aleve, which is a lower dose form of the muscle relaxer Naprosyn.

Also, Excedrin is only aspirin and caffeine. All other aspirin based products (Bayer, etc.) are aspirin only. To my knowledge, there are NO products that combine aspirin and acetaminophen.

Edit: Apparently I WAS WRONG and Excedrin does combine AM + Aspirin.

No matter to me anyhow, as neiother aspirin or am do a thing for me. Ibuprofen is much better than aspirin and/or am anyday IMO.

No need, it looks like your right on the Aspirin+acetaminophen+caffeine in Excedrin. I looked at a regular Excedrin package here in the gift shop @ work, and it has all three. My bad. But Advil is not AM...

You know what's funny, the product I have here is plain old Excedrin extra strength, and it has the exact same amounts as your Excedrin migraine....I wonder how many people spend more on the "migraine" formula thinking it's different...

aspirin is an analgesic. pretty much everything but acetaminophen is an analgesic. that includes ibuprofen, naproxyn sodium, and ketoprofen (as well as opiates). excedrin
