Ibuprofen, an NSAID that reduces inflammation, is indicated for the following conditions:

- Pain: provides relief from mild to moderate acute or chronic pain. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature associated with infectious or inflammatory processes. - Inflammation: alleviates swelling and discomfort in musculoskeletal and soft‑tissue conditions.

Adverse reactions may occur with ibuprofen use. The frequency and severity vary among individuals.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild to moderate stomach upset. - Dyspepsia: indigestion or heartburn. - Headache: transient cranial discomfort. - Dizziness: feeling light‑headed or unsteady. - Rash: mild skin irritation. - Diarrhoea: loose stools.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding: blood loss in the stomach or intestines. - Ulcer perforation: a hole in the gastrointestinal lining. - Renal impairment: reduced kidney function. - Severe allergic reactions: anaphylaxis, angioedema. - Hepatic enzyme elevation: liver function changes. - Cardiovascular thrombotic events: increased risk of heart attack or stroke.

Before using ibuprofen, consider the following safety measures:

- Assess renal function: avoid use in patients with severe kidney disease. - Evaluate gastrointestinal risk: use caution in those with a history of ulcers or bleeding. - Use lowest effective dose: limit duration to the shortest period needed. - Avoid in known hypersensitivity: discontinue if allergic reactions occur. - Monitor cardiovascular risk: patients with heart disease should be evaluated. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen can interact with other medicines, altering efficacy or safety.

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

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors: possible reduction in renal function. - Diuretics: may impair kidney perfusion. - SSRIs: modest increase in bleeding tendency. - Antihypertensives: potential attenuation of blood‑pressure control. - Oral hypoglycemics: possible alteration of glucose control.
