Hi All

> Modification of reaction due to other drugs.
>
> Some beekeepers are reporting bad reactions to bee stings when they have taken pain killers or nti-inflammatory drugs.
>
> The drugs may reverse their immunity to bee stings. Such drugs include:-
>
> IBUPROFEN, FENOPROFEN, NAPROXEN, KETOPROFEN, SULINDAC, PIROXICAM, SUPROFED AND TOLMETIN.
>
> It has been recently reported that people who considered that they had an immunity to bee stings... Suffered much increased reactions to bee and wasp stings after taking a non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Beekeepers are advised to stay away from ADVID and TYLENOL and over the counter pain killers in general. If any pain relief is required... Then take only ASPIRIN.
