It treats pain, fever and inflammation, including postoperative pain, in hospital patients. Ibuprofen B. Braun is marketed in the European Union and is available by prescription for clinical settings.

GNH USA supplies Ibuprofen B. Braun as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals worldwide.

Ibuprofen is an NSAID that reduces pain, fever and inflammation through cyclooxygenase inhibition. - Pain: provides rapid analgesia for acute and postoperative pain. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature in febrile patients. - Inflammation: diminishes inflammatory swelling in musculoskeletal and surgical sites. - Postoperative pain: offers intravenous pain control after surgery.

Adverse reactions may occur with intravenous ibuprofen and should be monitored.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild to moderate upset stomach. - Headache: transient cranial discomfort. - Injection site pain: local discomfort at the infusion site.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding: potentially life‑threatening hemorrhage. - Renal impairment: reduced kidney function or acute failure. - Severe hypersensitivity: anaphylaxis, Stevens‑Johnson syndrome, or toxic epidermal necrolysis. - Hepatic dysfunction: elevated liver enzymes or hepatitis. - Cardiovascular events: increased risk of thrombotic events.

Use ibuprofen intravenously only under medical supervision and consider patient‑specific risk factors. - Renal function monitoring: assess creatinine clearance before and during therapy. - Hepatic function monitoring: check liver enzymes periodically. - Cardiovascular risk: avoid in patients with uncontrolled hypertension or recent myocardial infarction. - Elderly patients: use the lowest effective dose and monitor for adverse effects. - Concomitant anticoagulants: increase bleeding risk; monitor coagulation parameters. - Store at room temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and direct light.

Ibuprofen can interact with several drug classes; clinicians should evaluate potential risks.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): heightened bleeding risk. - Other NSAIDs or aspirin: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - Lithium: increased lithium serum concentrations.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Diuretics: may reduce renal clearance of ibuprofen. - Antihypertensives (e.g., ACE inhibitors, ARBs): possible attenuation of blood pressure control. - SSRIs: modest increase in bleeding tendency.
