Are you aware of a chart that compares pain relievers and their average time to peak potency?

Every body is different.
Be your own guinea pig.

Try each dosage and observe what happens. Keep a journal. One of my docs. feels that if you take two Advil (400 mg), you should get some idea of the efficacy after 30 minutes.

jailcalled everyone differs only in how hard it hits, (shouldn’t have dropped those night classes or I’d recall the proper word). The drug will have “action” no matter what.
I only read about certian medicines elbanditoroso. Take Klonapin, 30 minutes until effect full effect at one hour.

Does this chart have what you are looking for?

Great find, Jan.I am bookmarking that.

Google + librarian = results

I wasn’t able to open @Janbb’s link, but I’m assuming it has the info. I’d be interested to see it. Without seeing it I would say most typical OTC pain relievers take around 45–50 minutes to start feeling the effects with peak two hours in. Extended tabs that you only take once every twelve hours likely kick in just under an hour also, and then 2–8 probably you have very good levels.

One clue about any med is it needs time to absorb into your system and then if the recommendation is every 6 hours, then thats the half life most likely. So, that drug is probably peaking from 2–3 hours and then starts declining again, although by hour one and still at four you still feel effects of the meds.

There are some drugs that absorb very fast, but I don’t think any of the average pain relievers are one if them.

That’s OTC pills. Injections are different.

I’m not a doctor.
