I pulled or strained (or something) my shoulder muscles earlier, so I went in today to get some drugs. I'd planned on getting "Alleve" since I knew that would help, but Ibuprofen also would have been good.
Now, I rarely buy OTC medications, so I was unprepared and overwhelmed by my choices.
Just looking at Alleve, I had about five different choices, of varying sizes (50 ct, 100ct, 200ct) and type (caplets, gel-caps). And there are generics of Profen Sodium (or whatever). And there are other brand-name versions.
Ibuprofen, I think? Generics, brand-names (Advil), and a multitude of sizes, types, EZ-open bottles, etc!
And I don't even know what the functional difference is between these two drugs are!
I finally pulled myself together, grabbed a bottle of Alleve, and fled the scene
So how do you do it? How do you choose what to get? And people say buying computers is hard...
