Hello fellow beekeepers. During my career in the military as a Security
Police I received several injuries indicative of the job. Because of these
injuries I have to take anti-inflammatory medications such as Motrin,
Ibprofin, and large doses of tylonol. My problem is that in taking these
medications I have very nasty reactions when I receive a bee sting. I am not
willing or going to give up beekeeping. Is there anyone out there that can
tell me a good over the counter pain medication that should not react with
the stings that a beekeeper no matter how careful is going to receive during
the routine work with bees? Thank You. Bob Landolfi, NM USAF RET.
