How often do most people do drop sets?

Getting some DOMS. I have never really had DOMS before. Is ibuprofen or something good for it?
I'm no expert, but since no one else answered I'll give you my opinion. If I'm wrong, it will bring people flocking to the thread so it's a win-win. If you are having severe enough DOMS that you need pain relief, then you went too heavy too fast. It won't hurt anything, but it could affect your next workout or sometimes more, and it can be demotivating. That said, yes, I just use Ibuprofen.
Eta: From your original post, it looks like you've been hitting the gym for nearly 2 months now. Congrats and don't let up! If you keep it up long enough, it will become part of your lifestyle, and you won't be able to imagine life without it.

I always take anything for anti-inflammatory purposes (turmeric, fish oil) at night. I lift in the mornings. You want some degree of inflammation after lifting weights. Maybe a day or two after lifting won't make any impact - not sure. I just wouldn't take anti-inflammatories right after lifting weights as a DOMS prevention strategy.
