Ibuprofen, an NSAID, acts on inflammatory pathways to provide analgesic, antipyretic and anti‑inflammatory effects.

- Mild to moderate pain: Reduces pain intensity by decreasing prostaglandin‑mediated sensitization of nociceptors. - Fever: Lowers elevated body temperature through inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the hypothalamus. - Inflammation: Diminishes swelling and redness by limiting inflammatory mediator production.

Ibuprofen may cause a range of adverse reactions, varying from mild to severe.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort: nausea, dyspepsia or abdominal pain. - Headache: mild to moderate intensity. - Dizziness or vertigo. - Skin rash or mild itching.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding. - Renal impairment or acute kidney injury. - Severe hypersensitivity reactions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. - Hepatotoxicity or elevated liver enzymes.

When using ibuprofen, several safety considerations should be observed.

- Assess renal function: avoid use in patients with severe kidney disease or dehydration. - Monitor gastrointestinal risk: use with caution in individuals with a history of ulcers or bleeding. - Evaluate cardiovascular status: limit use in patients with uncontrolled hypertension or heart failure. - Review concomitant medications: avoid concurrent use with other NSAIDs or anticoagulants without medical guidance. - Pregnancy and lactation: consult a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C in the original packaging, protected from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen can interact with other medicines, altering efficacy or safety.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of serious bleeding. - Lithium: ibuprofen may raise lithium serum concentrations, risking toxicity. - Methotrexate: reduced renal clearance can lead to toxic levels.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may diminish antihypertensive effect and affect kidney function. - Diuretics: combined use can increase risk of renal impairment. - Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): may modestly raise bleeding risk.
