Painkillers and Rejection
New research published in Current Directions in Psychological Science journal has concluded that painkillers not only help with physical pain but also the emotional pain one feels from rejection. Naomi Eisenberger, study researcher of the University of California-Los Angeles, said, “Rejection is such a powerful experience for people. If you ask people to think back about some of their earliest negative experiences, they will often be about rejection, about being picked last for a team or left out of some social group.”
NSAIDs are a Big Risk for Pregnancy
Women who are considering pregnancy and those already in their first trimester of pregnancy should be warned that taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may increase their risk for miscarriage. Physicians already deter the use of NSAIDs in the last trimester of pregnancy because it can interfere with the healthy development of fetal circulation.
