What is good over the counter medicine for back pain?


I slept in the wrong position for the last couple of nights and my lower back is hurting. What is a good over the counter medicine for this?

I took some extra strength tylenol but I've seen things advertised especially for back pain and I can't remember what it was. Thanks!

Im 6'8'' so im no stranger to back pain. Backaid is what i use, its in a pill formand it works well, or Motrin ib (take 4 caplets=800mg). Good luck!

Aleve works great and you only have to take one.

Aleve or naproxen sodium seems to work the best for me when I am suffering from lower back pain. Doan's is a back pain relief.

I would try an ibuprofen like Advil or Motrin. They are anti-inflammatory and are more effective than Tylenol for body aches not associated with illness. You can also try laying on a heating pad or taking a warm bath.

Good luck!

Try advil or alieve, they are anti-inflammatories and pain relief!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Motrin and a heat pad.
