Ibuprofen acts systemically to reduce pain, fever, and inflammation across several common conditions.

Headache: provides relief from mild to moderate headache pain. Dental pain: eases discomfort after dental procedures or toothache. Musculoskeletal pain: reduces pain and stiffness in muscles, joints, and back. Fever: lowers elevated body temperature associated with infection or inflammation. Osteoarthritis: improves joint function and reduces chronic pain. Rheumatoid arthritis: helps control inflammatory joint pain and swelling.

Adverse reactions may range from mild to serious and should be monitored during therapy.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal upset: nausea, dyspepsia, or abdominal discomfort. - Headache: mild to moderate intensity. - Dizziness or vertigo. - Skin rash or mild itching. - Elevated blood pressure in susceptible individuals. - Mild renal function changes.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding. - Acute renal failure or worsening chronic kidney disease. - Severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxis. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis. - Hepatotoxicity with elevated liver enzymes. - Thrombotic cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction or stroke.

Before initiating ibuprofen therapy, consider the following safety measures.

Assess gastrointestinal risk: evaluate history of ulcers or bleeding. Evaluate renal function: monitor creatinine in patients with kidney disease. Monitor cardiovascular status: use lowest effective dose in patients with heart disease. Use lowest effective dose: limit duration to the shortest period needed. Avoid use in third trimester of pregnancy: may affect fetal cardiovascular system. Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen can interact with several medication classes; some require avoidance while others need careful monitoring.

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

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Diuretics: possible reduction in antihypertensive effect. - Methotrexate: decreased clearance leading to toxicity. - Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): enhanced bleeding tendency.
