W to Choose the Best Pain Reliever
. relievers are among the most commonly used of the nonprescrip­
titvi��.,..' ines. Billions of dollars are spent by the public for relief of pain
IIIOCiIIed with headache, anhritis, bunitis, muscle soreness, prernen­
SIrUaI syndrome (PMS), and ocher conditions. For headache alone,
Amaicans spend approximately $400 million each year for nonprescrip­
tion medicines. The most popu_ products contain aspirin, acelQmino­
PMII, and/or ibfIprofell. Which pain teliever IS the best? Here are three
tips on how to seleCt a product
1. Disc the pain with your'pharmacist to help delt'rmine its possible
calle 01' ca . A common cause of headache, for example, is �nus
CODgesbon. A propedy selected decongestant may provide better pain
relief IhIn J*n reliever medicines alone.
2. Be aware of potential side effeccs and interactions .iated with pain
relievtn. Avoid irin dwing pregnancy or if there . a history of intes­
bJeedin . Aspirin and ibuprofen inaer.ct with a number of presaip-
medicines. Disc this possjbility with the pharmacist.

The Justi.ces did emphasize:
that before a fed al busing
order can be lifted, chools must
approach lower courts in hopes
that the lower courts will decide
that no inclination of dis­
