I've taken both several times over the past year for five different surgeries. It was only the last two surgeries that I got into trouble and had a hard time getting off them. Once I stopped trying to do cold-turkey it actually didn't end up being too bad -- I split the pills in half and kept taking smaller and smaller doses until I was finally off. I would have him do the same thing. Take the minimum dose to ease his pain (and make sure he's still taking the Advil regularly) and have him work his way down gradually.

If this is the first time (or even the first time in awhile) that he's taken them, he will probably be okay. But it's good that you're thinking ahead and being cautious.

I hope he starts feeling better soon.
