I repeat: Today (not two decades ago) if you Google Ibuprofen and bee stings you will find very few obscure references to exacerbated reactions to bee stings, and a preponderance of recommendations for using ibuprofen to relieve the pain of bee stings.  All who care to can hang on to and embrace this little substantiated rumor are welcome to do so.  Personally I’ve dropped it from my repertoire.  I got tired of appearing silly.
