I'm finding, if I'm correct that if I'm on Doans and I put ben gay on with salicylate, I feel very sick after about an hour and a half. Am I overdosing on salicylate? I think I've done this before, but this time, I notice I have a terrible taste in my mouth. yesterday I was sure it was caused by a D3 pill I had just started, but I also had just started putting generic ben gay from Target on my neck on a daily basis and it's 30% salicylate! So I'm just imagining I can drink a ton of water and lay off both for now, and leave the ben gay stuff alone to feel much better. I just get anxious from things like that, when I get queasy and/or have a really nasty repeated taste in my mouth.

I hate it when I take a pill and then get some weird symptom, like I don't know if it's a side effect or just a cold coming on. Makes me nervous too, especially at night. (typically it happens on a holiday weekend so I can't call the doc for four days:rolleyes:)
Like all NSAIDs, Doan's can be hard on the stomach. Doan's isn't any more effective for back pain than any other OTC NSAID. http://www.ftc.gov/opa/1999/05/doans.shtm
So if you're taking it specifically for back pain you may want to consider a switch to a newer, more tummy friendly NSAID.
