Ibuprofeno Alter contains ibuprofen, an NSAID indicated for the relief of mild to moderate pain, reduction of fever, and control of inflammation associated with conditions such as headache, dental pain, musculoskeletal strain, and arthritis.
How does ibuprofen work?+
Ibuprofen blocks the cyclooxygenase‑1 and cyclooxygenase‑2 enzymes, which are needed to produce prostaglandins. By lowering prostaglandin levels, it reduces inflammation, eases pain, and helps bring down elevated body temperature.
