Excedrin is an over-the-counter headache pain reliever, typically in the form of tablets or caplets. It contains acetaminophen (paracetamol), aspirin, and caffeine. It is heavenly headache relief in the form of a small tablet. Excedrin is the first non-prescription medicine approved by the FDA to treat all the symptoms of a migraine. I rely on Excedrin for relief and it's the only medicine I will take for a migraine.
It's a fact that nobody enjoys having to deal with a migraine or headache. That's why the makers of Excedrin invite you to take a holiday from headaches. To find relief, all you have to do is follow these simple steps provided by Dr. Keri Peterson, M.D.
- Stick to your regular routine. Eating, sleeping, and exercising as you do the rest of the year can help reduce the chances of getting a headache.
- Manage your time and plan ahead. Coordinate plans and responsibilities in advance with relatives, compose set menus when hosting a party and try to purchase gifts early so you're not rushing at the last minute.
- Stay in ventilated spaces. As you browse through the mall, watch out for those scented candles or perfume if you're sensitive to smells.
- Eat and drink in moderation. Eat, drink, and be merry, but try not to consume sweets or alcoholic beverages in excess as they could trigger headaches.
Don't forget to visit Excedrin's Facebook page between November 1, 2013 and January 1, 2014 to enter the “Take a Holiday from Headaches” sweepstakes. You'll be eligible for a chance to win daily prizes including gift cards to popular retailers. One lucky grand prize of $25,000 to help with shopping, travel and other holiday expenses! See official rules here.
One lucky winner will win a $100 American Express gift card to help with their holiday shopping!

ReplyDeleteShopping during the holidays is stressful. Ecspecially on Black Friday
ReplyDeleteThis year I have a newborn so it can be a bit stressful trying to get everything ready for the holidays and take care of the kiddos. Taking things slow and making goals for everyday helps me achieve my goals.
ReplyDeleteIt's the crowds - I hate dealing with all the people and chaos
ReplyDeleteThe last few years, my husband and I were on the verge of homelessness and what stressed me out the most was that we were unable to do anything with (or for) our kids and grandbabies. This year is much better for us, and I'm mostly stressed about putting weight back on with all the yummy food! ;)
ReplyDeleteSo much to do!!
ReplyDeleteI hate the traffic at every place I go the waiting to find a parking spot makes me very stressed
ReplyDeletetrying to get everything planned and done early enough to enjoy the holidays
ReplyDeleteHonestly what stresses me the most is that my family is so spread out, and this year we won't be able to see each other. It just makes me emotionally stressed. Also, the crowds in Target ALREADY!

ReplyDeleteI'm a single Mom to a 2 year old and a 4 year old. It has been very hard being able to afford the gifts that they want.
ReplyDeleteshopping is crowded, driving is stressful and then we can't find what we set out to buy. Everyone expects perfection and it is expensive. The family, the friends they all want to compare how 'well' things are going. yea, it is stressfull
ReplyDeleteKnowing that this year I'll be spending it alone & not with my family.
ReplyDeleteI'd have to say the holiday shopping is the worse
ReplyDeleteI'm stressing right now--the day before we travel to my SIL's house for Thanksgiving. I promised to bring more than I have time to cook. *sigh* I'm taking a break after about 10hoursin the kitchen.

ReplyDeletebills... just the normal everyday things... but around the holidays they are even worse because you want to spend that money on family instead of those ever growing bills.
