You can build a tolerance to both of those things, but their painkilling effectiveness is just not as strong as opiates.

Both of those are the same thing, and any chance of developing tolerance is very low.

Sorry, I was very tired - however, having taken ibuprofen for years - 2 pills will not give me the same pain relief as it did 10 years ago. I have to up it to 3, or 4. I'm not sure if this is tolerance or an increase in inflammation resulting in a need for a higher dose (hoping not).
