Hey guys quick question.

I have been on Cipralex (escitalopram) for nearly 2 months and I have a severe tooth ache and I need something to relieve my pain with until I go to the dentist. I had been always using ibuprofen before but now I don't know if there is a problem with cipralex.

Anyone care to help? :D
