Ibuprofen is an NSAID that reduces inflammation and pain by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes.

- Pain: Provides relief from mild to moderate acute pain such as headache, dental pain, or musculoskeletal discomfort. - Fever: Lowers elevated body temperature associated with viral or bacterial infections. - Inflammation: Decreases swelling in conditions such as sprains, strains, or minor injuries. - Arthritis: Alleviates joint pain and stiffness in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Ibuprofen may cause a range of adverse reactions, varying from mild to serious.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal upset: nausea, dyspepsia, or abdominal discomfort. - Headache: mild to moderate intensity. - Dizziness or vertigo. - Skin rash or mild itching.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcer perforation. - Acute renal impairment or worsening of chronic kidney disease. - Cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction or stroke. - Severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxis. - Hepatic injury or severe liver enzyme elevation. - Rare dermatologic conditions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome.

When using Ibuprofen Strides, consider the following safety measures.

- Assess renal function: evaluate kidney health before initiating therapy. - Monitor gastrointestinal risk: avoid in patients with a history of ulcers or bleeding. - Use lowest effective dose: limit duration to reduce adverse events. - Avoid in late pregnancy: contraindicated in the third trimester. - Check for drug interactions: review concomitant medications for potential conflicts. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and heat.

Ibuprofen can interact with several medicines; awareness helps minimise risk.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased bleeding risk. - Other NSAIDs: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - Corticosteroids: heightened ulcer risk.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may reduce renal function. - Diuretics: risk of renal impairment. - Lithium: increased lithium serum levels. - Methotrexate: reduced clearance leading to toxicity.
