Sept. 22, 2010 - PRLog -- Orem Chiropractor - R. Ned McArthhur, D.C. | 801-225-1311 | www.AskDrNed.com | Orem chiropractor - R. Ned McArthur, D.C.  specializes in restoring your quality of health, increasing your well-being, and getting you pain free again.

Today I read an article entitled:  Long-term Use of Anti-inflammatory Drugs and Risk of Atrial Fibrillation
that was published in 2010 in the journal, Archives of Internal Medicine.

The purpose of their study was to see if there was a relationship between NSAID’s (non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and atrial fibrillation.  NSAID’s include Acetaminophen (Tylenol) & Ibuprofen (Advil).  Atrial fibrillation is a problem in the top chambers of the heart where they fall out of the normal heart rhythm.   This is a serious situation because atrial fibrillation can result in a stroke.

Previous studies have described an association between atrial fibrillation and the use of corticosteroid medications or SAID’s (steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs).  Popular SAID’s include Hydrocortisone & Prednisone.  

The results of the study showed that there is an increased risk of atrial fibrillation and the use of NSAID’s and that risk went up with treatment duration longer than 1 year.

The question you should be asking is, “is there an alternative to Tylenol & Advil?”  The answer to that question is a resounding “Yes!”  If you want to naturally reduce your pain & inflammation Orem Chiropractor – R. Ned McArthur, D.C. provides gentle chiropractic and effective nutritional solutions.    

I came to Dr McArthur’s office a wreck.  I had severe headaches, nausea, dizziness, stiffness in the neck and my shoulders were as hard as rocks.  Dr McArthur was concerned about me and made sure I understood the process I needed to go through to get better.  I have made drastic improvements on my overall health since then.  I almost never get a headache.  My nausea and dizziness are gone.  My energy is back.  My neck and shoulders feel like they should.  My body is more capable of moving how I need it to.  Thanks so much for helping me feel like a normal person.  Something I haven’t felt very often in my life
