NSAIDS like Ibuprofen

[SixFooter]

Do keep away from NSAIDS when inspecting bees. There is a link with sensitisation and the development of severe allergic reaction.

I take these in the Winter for mild arthritis, but stop in the summer when I start inspecting bees. Is this safe or should I not take them at all?

Hi SixFooter

There is a long thread in the stickies look at post 32 or so onwards in particular though it's worth reading the whole thread.

ACE inhibitors are implicated as well I think.

I'm going to stop taking them I think.
