How long is it okay to use Motrin for a toothache?
Filed Under (Toothache) by Tony Stai on 04-27-2009

I started having a toothache last Friday. Called the dentist Sat morning and got started on antibiotic. I have been using Motrin since Friday for the pain. Now I need the tooth extracted, but can't get in to the oral surgeon until the 9th. Is it okay to continue using Motrin to keep the pain away for that long - it will have been 18 days total.

As long as you are taking it as directed and drinking lots of fluid, it should be okay. Try to take it only if you need to though.
