Some medications can ouch your pouch! 
Medications to avoid:
NSAIDs or Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs – these block cox-1 and lead to bleeding and ulcers. NSAIDs inhibit the ability for the stomach to protect itself. The stomach has 3 ways of shielding itself from the digestive juices. Mucus that coats the stomach, an chemical to neutralize the digestive juices, and circulation of blood to the lining to enhance repair. NSAIDS thwarts all of these defensive devices.
The most common forms of NSAIDs are: Ibuprophen, Naproxen, and Nabumetone.
