Your comment is fair; obviously I wrote a pretty flippant comment, but the message is largely useful for most people.

The fact is that (largely due to the incredible marketing of Johnson & Johnson's Tylenol brand in the US) way too many people think acetaminophen is "safe and effective" when it's actually both pretty unsafe and pretty ineffective. Most people just "pop a Tylenol" by default without realizing it's not much better than placebo.

Sure there are cases where people have unique risks and should avoid NSAIDs. But for the vast majority of the public, if they or their kid are dealing with a headache, fever, menstrual cramp, or other transient pain or fever, they should reach for ibuprofen (with a snack) over acetaminophen. It's not remotely a close call.

I'm frankly pleased that people are becoming more aware of this and I don't mind taking a couple correction comments for presenting the info in a superficial way.

NSAIDs can cause GI issues if taken with or without a snack.

They reduce production of the stomach’s protective mucous lining. Snacks don’t help with that.

They can also cause kidney damage.

Occasional use for an otherwise healthy person is fine. But Tylenol as long as you are careful not to take too much is generally safer.
