Drugs to take for getting tattoos?

Right, so i've been wondering what kinds of chemicals would benefit a tattoo session, and help the person last longer.
I am not specifically speaking of dulling pain, there are other factors that go into this as well, as the body reacts to getting a tattoo in various ways, including an inflammatory reponse.
For this specific reason, i can't get passed three hours per session as the skin flares up. My artist has explained that he can't really just move to another area and tattoo that spot where it seems uninflamed, as it is the whole body that is reacting to everything. I am wondering if a NSAID substance would benefit a tattoo session as it might help the skin from becoming inflamed?
I know that Opiates will help dull pain, but i have never used any for getting a tattoo. yesterday i was on kratom as a bit of an experiment to see how powerful it was as an analgesic and pain killer, and it really didn't kill the pain as much as it relaxed me during the tattoo session, but there was some pain reduction on 5 grams of the stuff.
What do you think?

How long does it last? NSAID drugs could help with that, they just make you bleed a lot more.

The whole thing is just too gross by half. What do you possibly get out of it? Art? Bah! Art is something you own and then RESELL. Tattoos only reflect a lapse in judgment that is indicative of a larger psychological set of issues that each adherent wears FOREVER.

You don't know art then. Art comes in a ton of different forms.

This again?
Many tattoos serve as rites of passage, marks of status and rank, symbols of religious and spiritual devotion, decorations for bravery, sexual lures and marks of fertility, pledges of love, punishment, amulets and talismans, protection, and as the marks of outcasts, slaves and convicts.
The only thing your post reflects is a lack of creativity on your own part that is indicative of an inability to conceptualize 'art' as anything beyond that of a commodity one buys and sells...

So opiates would make you bleed more? I always wondered about this as I will mark my skin one of these days.

I don't think I would take drugs for a tattoo session. I was kinda drunk for a piercing stretch once, but that's a whole different beast.

Can you please not do this in every thread about tattoos?

What about cutting off the skin first.. applying the tatoo, and sewing it back on maybe?

Oh, my misinterpretation.. I thought you were referring to opiates. I render aspirin and ibuprofen obsolete in this day and age.

Tattoos feel good man, they don't hurt. Your body gets natural adrenaline and endorphins pumping because of the needle. It's awesome! It feels like a heroin rush when they first start tatting you

I have tattoos, and if that's an accurate comparison, thank you for giving me more reasons to not do heroin.

Get the hydrocodone, that is mixed with ibuprofen.
The opiate helps the pain, the NSAID helps the inflammation.

Completely off topic. thread is about drugs and tattoos, not whether you would get one or not.
anyway, as frylock pointed out, ibuprofen might make clotting a little harder
"Ibuprofen can interfere with platelets and thus can reduce the clotting ability of the blood" from yahoo
" Ibuprofen, another NSAID, does not have such a long duration effect, with platelet function usually returning within 24 hours" from wiki
i am not sure ibuprofen is really the best thing to take for tattooing
