Ibuprofen Pharmaclan Stada

Ibuprofen, the active ingredient in Ibuprofen Pharmaclan Stada, is a Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) presented as an oral dosage form for oral use. It is used to relieve mild to moderate pain, reduce fever, and treat inflammatory conditions such as arthritis in adults and children when appropriate.

GNH USA supplies Ibuprofen Pharmaclan Stada as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Ibuprofen acts as a non‑selective NSAID to address pain, fever and inflammation across several common conditions.

- Mild to moderate pain: provides analgesia for headaches, dental pain, musculoskeletal aches, and dysmenorrhea. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature associated with infections or inflammatory states. - Inflammatory conditions: reduces swelling and discomfort in osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other joint disorders. - Dysmenorrhea: alleviates menstrual cramps and associated discomfort.

Adverse reactions to ibuprofen may vary in frequency and severity.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal upset: nausea, dyspepsia, or abdominal discomfort. - Headache: mild to moderate tension‑type headaches. - Dizziness or vertigo. - Skin rash or mild pruritus. - Elevated blood pressure in susceptible individuals.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration or perforation. - Acute renal impairment or failure. - Severe hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis. - Hepatotoxicity with elevated liver enzymes. - Cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction or stroke, particularly with high‑dose or prolonged use.

Before using ibuprofen, consider the following safety measures.

- Assess gastrointestinal risk: avoid in patients with active ulcers or a history of GI bleeding. - Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration needed. - Monitor renal function in patients with existing kidney disease or dehydration. - Avoid use in the third trimester of pregnancy due to fetal risks. - Caution when combined with anticoagulants or other NSAIDs. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen can interact with several medicines; some combinations should be avoided while others require monitoring.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of serious bleeding. - Other NSAIDs or aspirin: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - Corticosteroids: heightened risk of ulceration and bleeding.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: possible reduction in renal function. - Lithium: ibuprofen may raise lithium serum levels. - Methotrexate: reduced clearance leading to toxicity.
