When an anti-inflammatory is prescribed IM, is it illogical to want to take a gastric protector?

Hello Ma'am,
Not illogical at all.
Anti-inflammatory drugs can damage the stomach and intestines through direct contact, but also because they decrease the body's production of prostaglandins, a natural protector of the body for the stomach, among other things.
