    Am American. This many pills would expire long before the bottle was even close to being empty. I maybe take ibuprofen maybe once or twice a year.

      Damn look at no-pain McGee over here. I rarely go a week without a headache necessitating a few ibuprofen

        1. ibuprofen is addictive, in my country they are a prescription only medication because of this. Paracetamol on the other hand, is available off the counter
        2. too much ibuprofen or paracetamol is bad for you. Youre poisoning yourself
        3. never, ever, take that much pain killers unless you have a known condition and the doctor agrees. You could be hiding something else by using the painkillers
        4. i feel bad for you. Is the headache that bad? I usually ignore those but i have a high pain tollerence :)
