Painkillers raise blood pressure in women-U.S. study
Reuters - Women who take higher doses of common, over-the-counter painkillers such as ibuprofen and even Tylenol have higher blood pressure than women who do not, U.S. researchers reported on Monday.

My wife found this out during her first pregnancy. The pain killers she was taking were temporarily raising her blood pressure. She had to start taking it sporadically and only when she really needed it. She had to learn to deal with the pain. On another note, I also don't take allot of pain medication because I notice it raises mine slightly too. I think this mostly effects women, but the occassional man has the issue to, though not related to the same reasons.
Painkillers without dangerous side effects
Researchers have discovered a new way of developing painkillers. When used in an animal model, their prototype of a morphine-like molecule was able to produce substantial pain relief in inflamed tissues. However, healthy tissues remained unaffected, suggesting that the severe side effects currently associated with these types of painkillers might be avoided. Ref. Source 9j.
