Frequently asked questions

What conditions is Iprafeine used for?+
Iprafeine is indicated for the short‑term relief of mild to moderate pain such as tension‑type headache, migraine attacks, dental pain after procedures, and musculoskeletal discomfort caused by strain or minor injury. It is an over‑the‑counter option for adults seeking rapid analgesia.
How do ibuprofen and caffeine work together in Iprafeine?+
Ibuprofen blocks COX‑1 and COX‑2 enzymes, lowering prostaglandin production and reducing inflammation and pain. Caffeine antagonises adenosine receptors, which not only provides mild central stimulation but also enhances the analgesic effect of ibuprofen, resulting in faster and more pronounced pain relief.
What is the usual dose of Iprafeine?+
The appropriate dose of Iprafeine is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s age, weight, and the severity of the pain. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and the product labeling, and should not exceed the recommended amount.
Is Iprafeine safe to use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?+
Safety data for the combination of ibuprofen and caffeine during pregnancy or lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding should consult their healthcare provider before using Iprafeine to weigh potential benefits against risks.
How do I order Iprafeine from GNH USA?+
To request Iprafeine, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, and will verify trade or institutional credentials before providing pricing, availability, shipping details and any required import documentation.
How does Iprafeine compare with ibuprofen alone?+
Iprafeine combines ibuprofen with caffeine, which can enhance analgesic efficacy and provide a quicker onset of relief compared with ibuprofen alone. The caffeine component may also reduce perceived fatigue, but the combination may increase the risk of caffeine‑related side effects such as insomnia or palpitations.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Iprafeine?+
Iprafeine should be stored below 25 °C, in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the tablets in the original packaging to protect them from moisture and humidity, and keep out of reach of children.
How is Iprafeine administered?+
Iprafeine is taken orally. Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water, preferably after a meal or with food to minimise gastrointestinal irritation. Do not crush, chew, or split the tablet unless directed by a healthcare professional.
What are the most serious risks associated with Iprafeine?+
Serious risks include gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcer perforation, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, acute kidney injury, and rare but severe skin reactions like Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms such as vomiting blood, severe abdominal pain, rash, or swelling of the face and throat.
Who should avoid using Iprafeine?+
Iprafeine should not be used by individuals with known hypersensitivity to ibuprofen, other NSAIDs, or caffeine, those with active peptic ulcer disease, severe renal or hepatic impairment, uncontrolled hypertension, or by children under the age recommended on the label. Pregnant women should consult a physician before use.
