Can you use coated aspirin for pimples?
Aspirin doesn't get rid of pimples, but it can definitely aid in preventing them.

Using aspirin too much, more than 3 times a week, can cause rashes and irritation. For more info on aspirin check out acne.org and look at the reviews for apsirin.
Can a 100 Labrador take Ibuprofen?
I would strongly suggest you don't do this without first consulting your veteranarian. First of all, different doses for dogs are required other than human doses.

I've also had a Vet tell me once that this was OK as long as the proper dosage was given which can only be determined by a qualified vet.

The side effects of prednisone include:
1) Unpredictable effect (stress, well-being, anxiety, depression, restlessness, etc.) on mood. People who are suffering from mental illness or those who are having weak mental health are at highest risk of experiencing mood swings.
2) Dizziness, vomiting and insomnia
3) Acne
4) Steroid also causes chemical imbalance in our body and changes sugar level in blood, along with change in other chemicals such as calcium, potassium, water, etc.
5) Increased hunger and weight gain
6) Weakened healing ability of body and increased susceptibility towards infections: steroids affect the healing mechanism, which leads to a slowdown in healing ability of the body.
7) Swollen breasts due to deposition of fat
8) High dosages of steroids (or even a smallest dose of steroid for those whose body/metabolism does not support steroid at all) may lead to problems related to menstrual cycles in women patients. They may experience irregularity in menstrual cycle occurrence or no menstrual cycle occurrence at all.
9) In many cases, people undergoing steroid related treatment complain about eye-related problems such as increased pressure of fluid within the eyeballs which is also known as intra-ocular fluid pressure, wearing of outer cover of the eye (the outer cover becomes thin and susceptible for various eye related infections) and some people complain about development of cataract in their eye, etc.
10) Steroid may also interfere with the other medicines that the patient is taking and cause serious trouble for him/her. For example, if a person is undergoing heart, brain or any vital organ related medication, then steroid can lead to a medical condition such as increased blood pressure. Some problems in the patient may increase due to the use of steroid and other medications at the same time. People undergoing treatment for inflammation may face stomach and digestive system related problems if they start taking steroids.

How does Ibuprofen affect the fetus?
During the first two trimesters, ibuprofen probably doesn't cause any harm to the fetus, although there haven't been any really good human studies`(as with many medications during pregnancy). A few have shown a possible link to miscarriages or difficulty with implantation very early on, but other similar studies have shown this not to be the case. In the third trimester, it is not recommended since a medication similar to it causes closure of one of the blood vessels in the fetus (the ductus arteriosis), which can lead to major problems. Because of this, most physicians tend to recommend taking acetaminophen for pain and avoiding ibuprofen completely unless absolutely necessary. Hope this helps! Dr. B.
