What are the strongest pain killers I can get from somewhere like Boots, or my local chemist?

I don't want to overdose on Nurofen, so wondered if there is something a bit stronger that I don't need a doctors prescription thingy for?

Can I get co-codimol (or whatever it is?)

I was at Louigi's today, just getting in the way (for 10 hours) and I can pull the clutch in quite well now, but it's a little uncomfortable and after a few sessions I can see it being fairly sore... god forbid any tank slappers... ouch!!!

Ta muchly.

Go in and ask them.

hummm co-codamol you quite literlay will be flying i imagine might want to look up on the 'do not use heavey machiney warnings there'

if you get one of each you can take a pain killer every hour without overdoesing or something like
paracetamol
ibuprofen
asprin

Ibuprofen, you can take 800mg at a time. Only thing, they raise you're blood pressure, which cannot be reversed from this use. So don't over do it, and have half a cow at the same time. Will help with the swelling and pain, the pills not the cow.

Dom,

Be careful what you take - you are participating in a sport, remember that!

You could fail a dope test

Dom, I could help you out mate BUT should you have a whoopsie on the track you will deffo find yourself in a pickle.

Make sure you note down whatever you take, and make sure a mate has this with him/her whilst you are racing.
Generally this wont be a problem with over the counter stuff, but quacks do like to know 'whassgorn-on' when doing the mending.

C

can help afterwards tho
