Hello, I have severe tooth pain for 2 days now and dafalgan 1g isn’t working to the point that I cannot eat and sleep properly. Would I need a prescription for stronger medication/painkiller?

No. You have to come to the dentist to see if the nerve is touch and to stop the pain.

Hi,

Unfortunately tooth pain almost never goes away by simply taking a medication. Unlike a bruise on your leg or a cut on a finger, a tooth pain is caused by an issue that has to be eliminated by a health professional. Medication only temporarily solves the issue.
To be sure that the pain goes away and the problem doesn't amplify, take an appointment with a dentist as soon as possible so that they can identify the source of the problem and solve it.
Meanwhile, you can always try a combination of Dafalgan 1g and Ibuprofen 400mg, alternating between the two every 4-6 hours. Don't go over 3 times a day for each!

There is some dental pains for which painkillers don’t work, you need to consult urgently if you can so that a dentist can diagnose the cause of the pain and give you the right treatment.

Hello, I'm sorry to hear about your severe tooth pain. In situations like this, it's crucial to seek urgent dental care to alleviate your discomfort. Only a dentist can assess the necessity for a prescription for stronger medication or painkillers. I strongly recommend scheduling an appointment with a dentist as soon as possible to address your pain and explore the appropriate treatment options.

Hello, you probably have an infection, so you need to see a dentist asap, because taking painkillers won't solve the problem (only the pain).

Hello, you have to open the tooth properly and extract the nerve, that is the only way to be better.
