Turmeric / curcumin and Advil (ibuprofen)?

by mrsv118 on Fri Aug 24, 2012 2:39 pm

So I started tumeric 4 gm/day when I found out I have smoldering multiple myeloma. Is there any known contraindications for taking Advil (ibuprofen) and turmeric? Advil is one of the medications I take for my migraines.

I also have smoldering multiple myeloma. I'm taking 8 grams of curcumin per day. I was told not to take Advil due to kappa / lambda. When I need it, I take Tylenol (acetaminophen / paracetamol).
