Ibuprofen-Negative effects or benefits??

[BuffDaddy3456]

Earlier today i injected prop/fina into my leg, tiny amount of pain afterwards, nothing too bad.

I'm still getting over a cold, so i decided to take some ibuprofen tonight, to help w/ my cold.

My thigh is perfectly fine now, doesn't even hurt at all. My question is, after some more painful type injections (T-400, 50ml QV enan) can you pop a few iboprofen for a few days till you're better or would this be detrimental your gains or anything like that?

I mean i know the obvious "you'll build an immunity to it, and if you get sick the pills won't have the same effect" but i'm willing to risk that....i just would like to know if i could pop a few ibuprofen a day or two after my painful injections to help w/ the muscle soreness..

thanks.

We examined the effect of two commonly consumed over-the-counter analgesics, ibuprofen and acetaminophen, on muscle protein synthesis and soreness after high- intensity eccentric resistance exercise. Twenty-four males (25 ± 3 yr, 180 ± 6 cm, 81 ± 6 kg, and 17 ± 8% body fat) were assigned to one of three groups that received either the maximal over-the-counter dose of ibuprofen (IBU; 1,200 mg/day), acetaminophen (ACET; 4,000 mg/day), or a placebo (PLA) after 10-14 sets of 10 eccentric repetitions at 120% of concentric one-repetition maximum using the knee extensors. Postexercise (24 h) skeletal muscle fractional synthesis rate (FSR) was increased 76 ± 19% (P < 0.05) in PLA (0.058 ± 0.012%/h) and was unchanged (P > 0.05) in IBU (35 ± 21%; 0.021 ± 0.014%/h) and ACET (22 ± 23%; 0.010 ± 0.019%/h). Neither drug had any influence on whole body protein breakdown, as measured by rate of phenylalanine appearance, on serum creatine kinase or on rating of perceived muscle soreness compared with PLA. These results suggest that over-the-counter doses of both ibuprofen and acetaminophen suppress the protein synthesis response in skeletal muscle after eccentric resistance exercise. Thus these two analgesics may work through a common mechanism to influence protein metabolism in skeletal muscle...

hhajdo,

Good Read!
