Ibuprofen is an NSAID that reduces pain, fever, and inflammation by acting on prostaglandin pathways.

- Pain: provides relief of mild to moderate pain such as headache, toothache, or musculoskeletal discomfort. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature associated with infections or inflammatory conditions. - Inflammation: decreases swelling and discomfort in conditions like arthritis or minor injuries.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild stomach upset or queasiness. - Dyspepsia: indigestion or heartburn. - Headache: transient head pain. - Dizziness: feeling light‑headed or unsteady. - Rash: mild skin irritation or redness. - Diarrhea: loose stools.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding: blood in stool or vomiting blood. - Peptic ulceration: painful sores in the stomach or duodenum. - Renal impairment: reduced kidney function or swelling. - Severe allergic reactions: anaphylaxis, swelling of face or throat. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: severe skin blistering. - Hepatic injury: jaundice or abnormal liver enzymes.

Before using ibuprofen, consider the following precautions. - Medical history: assess for ulcers, kidney disease, cardiovascular issues, asthma, or pregnancy. - Hypersensitivity: avoid if known allergy to ibuprofen or other NSAIDs. - Dose minimization: use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration. - Renal monitoring: check kidney function in patients with pre‑existing renal impairment or dehydration. - Alcohol use: limit alcohol intake to reduce gastrointestinal risk. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25°C, retain in original packaging, and protect from moisture.

Ibuprofen can interact with several medicines; monitoring is essential.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased bleeding risk. - Other NSAIDs or aspirin: heightened gastrointestinal toxicity. - Corticosteroids: synergistic ulcer risk. - Lithium: elevated lithium serum levels. - Methotrexate: reduced clearance leading to toxicity.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: possible reduction in renal function. - Diuretics: potential for decreased kidney perfusion. - SSRIs: modest increase in bleeding tendency. - Digoxin: may increase serum concentrations. - Oral hypoglycemics: possible alteration of blood glucose control.
