1
Sarah (Female)
Excuse me, I'm having a really bad headache and some muscle pain in my neck. Can you recommend something over-the-counter?
打扰一下，我头痛得厉害，脖子也有点肌肉疼痛。您能给我推荐点非处方药吗？
2
John (Male)
Certainly. For headaches and muscle pain, we usually recommend either ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Have you taken anything recently?
当然可以。针对头痛和肌肉疼痛，我们通常会推荐布洛芬或对乙酰氨基酚。您最近吃过什么药吗？
3
Sarah (Female)
No, nothing yet. What's the main difference between them? And are there any side effects I should be aware of?
不，还没吃。它们之间主要有什么区别？有什么需要我注意的副作用吗？
4
John (Male)
Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory, good for both pain and swelling. Common side effects can include stomach upset. Acetaminophen is primarily for pain and fever, and is generally gentler on the stomach. The main concern with acetaminophen is liver issues if you exceed the recommended dosage.
布洛芬是抗炎药，对止痛和消肿都有效。常见的副作用可能包括胃部不适。对乙酰氨基酚主要用于止痛和退烧，通常对胃部更温和。对乙酰氨基酚的主要问题是，如果超过推荐剂量，可能会引起肝脏问题。
5
Sarah (Female)
Okay, that makes sense. Since I also have muscle pain, perhaps ibuprofen would be better for the anti-inflammatory effect. What's the recommended dosage for that?
好的，我明白了。既然我也有肌肉疼痛，也许布洛芬的抗炎效果会更好。推荐剂量是多少？
6
John (Male)
For ibuprofen, a typical adult dose is one to two 200mg tablets every 4 to 6 hours, as needed. Do not exceed 1200mg in 24 hours. Always take it with food to minimize stomach upset.
对于布洛芬，成人典型剂量是每4到6小时服用一到两片200毫克的药片，按需服用。24小时内不要超过1200毫克。务必随餐服用，以尽量减少胃部不适。
7
Sarah (Female)
Got it. And are there any specific contraindications? Like, should I avoid it if I have certain conditions?
明白了。有什么特别的禁忌吗？比如，如果我有某些疾病，应该避免服用吗？
8
John (Male)
Good question. Yes, you should avoid ibuprofen if you have a history of stomach ulcers, severe kidney disease, or certain heart conditions. It can also interact with blood thinners. Do any of those apply to you?
问得好。是的，如果您有胃溃疡史、严重的肾脏疾病或某些心脏病，应该避免使用布洛芬。它也可能与血液稀释剂相互作用。这些情况您有吗？
9
Sarah (Female)
No, thankfully I don't have any of those. I think I'll go with the ibuprofen then. Thank you so much for your help!
不，谢天谢地，我没有这些情况。那我就选布洛芬好了。非常感谢您的帮助！
10
John (Male)
You're very welcome. Please read the full instructions on the package before taking it. Feel better soon!
不客气。服用前请务必仔细阅读包装上的完整说明。希望您早日康复！
