Ibuprofen acts on inflammatory pathways to relieve pain, reduce fever, and diminish swelling.

- Mild to moderate pain: Provides analgesic relief for headaches, musculoskeletal discomfort, and dental pain. - Fever: Lowers elevated body temperature associated with infection or inflammation. - Osteoarthritis: Reduces joint pain and improves functional mobility. - Rheumatoid arthritis: Alleviates inflammatory joint pain and swelling. - Dysmenorrhea: Relieves menstrual cramps and associated pelvic discomfort.

Adverse reactions may occur with ibuprofen use and vary in frequency and severity.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: Mild gastrointestinal upset often occurring after dosing. - Dyspepsia: Indigestion or discomfort in the upper abdomen. - Headache: Transient mild to moderate head pain. - Dizziness: Light‑headed sensation, especially with rapid standing. - Rash: Minor skin irritation or erythema. - Diarrhoea: Loose stools that resolve after discontinuation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding: Potential ulceration leading to blood loss. - Peptic ulcer perforation: Full‑thickness breach of the stomach or duodenal wall. - Renal impairment: Decreased kidney function, particularly in dehydrated patients. - Severe allergic reactions: Anaphylaxis, angioedema, or bronchospasm. - Hepatic dysfunction: Elevated liver enzymes or hepatitis. - Cardiovascular events: Increased risk of thrombotic episodes in susceptible individuals.

Before using ibuprofen, consider the following safety measures.

- Assess renal function: Use cautiously in patients with existing kidney disease. - Monitor gastrointestinal risk: Avoid in individuals with a history of ulcer or bleeding. - Avoid in late pregnancy: Do not use during the third trimester due to fetal risks. - Use with caution alongside anticoagulants: Increased bleeding potential. - Store at ambient temperature: Keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen can interact with several medicines; awareness helps prevent adverse outcomes.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): Heightened risk of serious bleeding. - Selective COX‑2 inhibitors: Additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - High‑dose aspirin: Increased renal and gastrointestinal adverse effects.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors: May reduce renal perfusion, especially in dehydrated patients. - Diuretics: Potential for electrolyte imbalance and reduced kidney function. - Lithium: Ibuprofen can raise serum lithium concentrations, risking toxicity.
