For asthma, don't take NSAIDs like aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, and ketoprofen, the active ingredients in medicines like Advil, Bufferin, or Aleve.
Acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol is a much less risk of problems for people with asthma.
Don't take any over-the-counter painkiller for more than 10 days without your health care provider's approval.
