Kidofen

Ibuprofen, the active ingredient in Kidofen, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) presented as an oral dosage form for oral use. It is used to relieve pain, reduce fever, and diminish inflammation in conditions such as arthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders. GNH USA supplies Kidofen as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Ibuprofen acts systemically to alleviate symptoms associated with inflammatory and painful conditions. - Pain: Provides relief of mild to moderate acute pain such as headache, dental pain, or postoperative discomfort. - Fever: Lowers elevated body temperature in febrile states caused by infection or inflammation. - Inflammation: Reduces swelling and redness in soft‑tissue injuries and inflammatory joint diseases. - Arthritic conditions: Improves joint mobility and lessens discomfort in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Adverse reactions may vary in frequency and severity. Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort: nausea, dyspepsia, or mild abdominal pain. - Headache: transient mild to moderate headache. - Dizziness: occasional light‑headedness or vertigo. - Rash: mild skin erythema or pruritus. Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding: severe abdominal pain or melena. - Renal impairment: reduced urine output or elevated creatinine. - Hepatotoxicity: jaundice or abnormal liver enzymes. - Anaphylaxis: sudden swelling, difficulty breathing, or hypotension.

Before using Ibuprofen, consider the following safety measures. - Cardiovascular risk: avoid prolonged high‑dose use in patients with heart disease. - Gastrointestinal history: use with caution in individuals with ulcer disease or bleeding disorders. - Renal function: monitor kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease. - Concomitant medications: review all current drugs for potential interactions. - Pregnancy and lactation: consult a healthcare professional before use. Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen can affect the efficacy or safety of several other medicines. Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of serious bleeding. - Other NSAIDs or aspirin: heightened gastrointestinal toxicity. - Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): elevated bleeding risk. Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: possible reduction in antihypertensive effect and renal function. - Diuretics: may diminish diuretic response and affect kidney function. - Lithium: increased lithium levels, requiring serum monitoring.
