Does anyone know the effects of taking them together?
Cos I forgot to ask my doc and nothing was said in the info booklet so I figured that I might as well take both til the effects of the pill start kicking in (I want no more pain!!!). I ended up throwing up loads and loads but this was about 4 hours after I took them. Is this normal? I wasn't planning on going to my doc about this.
So basically any help/advice/info much appreciated.

I never usually through up on mefenamic acid - usually STOPS me being sick lol. Maybe it was just my body getting used to the pill. I don't think I will go to my doc this time, but if it happens again I will.
Thanks again for your help <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">
