Ibuprofen is an NSAID that reduces pain, fever, and inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis.

- Pain: Relieves mild to moderate acute pain such as headache, dental pain, or musculoskeletal discomfort. - Fever: Lowers elevated body temperature associated with infections or inflammatory conditions. - Inflammation: Decreases swelling and stiffness in conditions like arthritis or soft‑tissue injuries.

Adverse reactions to ibuprofen may range from mild, frequent events to rare but serious conditions.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal upset or dyspepsia. - Nausea or vomiting. - Headache. - Dizziness. - Mild skin rash.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcer perforation. - Acute renal impairment. - Hepatic injury. - Severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis.

When using ibuprofen, consider the following precautions to minimise risk and ensure safe therapy.

- Assess renal function: Evaluate kidney health before initiating therapy, especially in patients with dehydration or pre‑existing renal disease. - Monitor gastrointestinal risk: Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration in individuals with a history of ulcers or bleeding. - Evaluate cardiovascular status: Use caution in patients with hypertension, heart failure, or established cardiovascular disease. - Review concomitant medications: Avoid concurrent use with other NSAIDs, anticoagulants, or corticosteroids without medical supervision. - Pregnancy and lactation: Discuss potential risks with a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. - Store at ambient temperature: Keep tablets in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight, and store below 25 °C.

Ibuprofen can interact with several medicines, altering efficacy or increasing toxicity.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of bleeding. - Other NSAIDs or high‑dose aspirin: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may impair renal function when combined.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Diuretics: potential reduction in antihypertensive effect. - Methotrexate: ibuprofen can raise methotrexate plasma concentrations.
