Default Getting 4 teeth pulled tomorrow. Which painkiller works best?

I was thinking Vicoprofin? I had 1 wisdom tooth pulled a year ago and vicodin did not work. The only thing that gave me some relief was 4 advil.

In addition, how much can I take in mg and how many per day.

Thanks,
Brad

you should ask your Dr tomorrow when you show up. Tell him the Vicodin didnt work for you before (which is a surprise). As you said, vicorprofin might work because Advil worked for you. I've heard of folks taking up to 800mg per day of ibuprofen, but be sure to ask your Dr. I know tooth pain can be extremely bad, post-op.
You might want to ask him to give you a script for ibuprofen... the stuff that is high mg strength.
