Moment (Ibuprofen)

Ibuprofen, the active ingredient in Moment, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) presented as an oral tablet for oral use. It relieves pain, reduces fever, and diminishes inflammation in adults and children when appropriate.

GNH USA supplies Moment as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Ibuprofen acts systemically to manage conditions involving pain, fever, and inflammation. - Pain: provides relief of mild to moderate acute pain such as headache, dental pain, or musculoskeletal discomfort. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature associated with common infections or inflammatory states. - Inflammation: reduces swelling and discomfort in conditions like sprains, strains, or minor injuries. - Arthritis: helps control pain and stiffness 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 headache episodes. - Dizziness: occasional light‑headedness. - Rash: mild skin irritation or erythema. - Elevated blood pressure: modest rise in systolic or diastolic values.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding: severe abdominal pain or black stools. - Renal impairment: reduced urine output or swelling. - Hepatotoxicity: jaundice or abnormal liver enzymes. - Severe allergic reactions: anaphylaxis, swelling of face or throat. - Cardiovascular events: increased risk of heart attack or stroke in high‑risk patients.

Before using Moment, consider the following safety measures. - Gastrointestinal risk: avoid if you have active ulcers or a history of GI bleeding. - Cardiovascular caution: use carefully in patients with heart disease or hypertension. - Renal function: monitor kidney health, especially in the elderly or those with chronic kidney disease. - Concomitant NSAIDs: do not combine with other NSAIDs or aspirin without medical advice. - Pregnancy and lactation: discuss use with a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25°C in the original packaging, protected from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen may interact with several drug classes, requiring attention to avoid adverse outcomes.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased bleeding risk. - High‑dose aspirin: heightened gastrointestinal toxicity. - Selective COX‑2 inhibitors: additive renal and cardiovascular effects.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: possible reduction in antihypertensive efficacy. - Diuretics: potential for decreased renal perfusion. - Lithium: risk of increased lithium levels. - Methotrexate: reduced clearance leading to toxicity.
