They're not addictive, but it can be kind of hard on your liver if you're taking a lot, and I think NSAIDs can cause stomach ulcers (again, if you're taking a lot).

I get headaches almost daily so I try to be careful, but I still take pain killers because they kill pain.

Yeah, I can definitely understand if it's a daily thing. It would suck to get headaches everyday.

I had a knee injury a little while back and was in really bad pain and I was prescribed something that was basically a very strong ibuprofen, and it was great but after a while my gut felt so bad, fortunately the two weeks or so was really all I needed.

here in sweden at least the packages just say to not take more than 3 pills per day and to seek help if you want to take them for more than a week straight.
