no, i wouldn't try it. when on PTU you should be careful of what over-the-counter drugs you are taking such as: motrin, aspirin,ibuprofen and other easy to get pills you should ask your doctor first, because their are alot of ingredients that don't mix with PTU. for example even if you read the labels (carefully) of the over-the-counter pills. alot of them will tell you not to take it if you have thyroids, trust me don't run the risk. just ask your doctor.
