I have been dealing with a bad tooth, and I am taking penicillin for this. I am also taking 800 MG Ibruprofen, and tylenol 3 when needed. I am planning on resuming my routine tonight (havent lifted since last thursday). Has anyone worked out while hopped up on AB's and pain meds? Is their anything I need to keep in mind? I am planning on drinking tons of water, and eating a good high carb meal pre workout. Should I just stay home and ride it out, or continue on my normal path?

I don't know anything specific, so lets hope that someone else who has more information responds soon. However, I will say that IF you are going to workout anyway make sure to take it slow. Gauge yourself all throughout the workout and if you ever feel like your equilibrium is really out of whack slow down or stop. If it was me I would either wait an extra day or maybe do some low weight stuff and not too much heavy lifting to see if I can handle the stress on my body.
I would wait for P-funk to respond before I do anything if I were you

Thank you, I was thinking similar. Tonight would be my push night, so I would be doing front squats, DB presses, dips, tricep pushdowns, and leg extensions. i was thinking dropping the weight and going higher rep for a few days. I just started lifting again, and I am really in the momentum of things right now, so I hate missing days.

i would ride it out. let your body heal! why compromise that process?
also, antibiotics can weaken tendons. or was it ligaments? or was it both? can't remember. either way, neither scenario is good.
