Ibuprofen is an NSAID that reduces inflammation and pain by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes.

- Pain: provides analgesia for mild to moderate musculoskeletal and dental pain. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature associated with infections or inflammatory conditions. - Inflammation: decreases swelling and discomfort in conditions such as arthritis or soft‑tissue injury.

Common side effects are generally mild and related to gastrointestinal or central nervous system irritation.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild stomach upset after dosing. - Dyspepsia: indigestion or heartburn. - Headache: transient cranial discomfort. - Dizziness: occasional light‑headedness. - Rash: mild skin irritation. - Diarrhoea: loose stools.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding: potentially life‑threatening ulceration. - Peptic ulcer perforation: severe stomach wall injury. - Renal impairment: reduced kidney function, especially in dehydrated patients. - Severe allergic reaction: anaphylaxis or angioedema. - Hepatotoxicity: liver enzyme elevation. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: rare severe skin reaction.

Before using Nureflex, consider the following safety measures.

- Assess gastrointestinal risk: avoid in patients with active ulcers or a history of GI bleeding. - Use the lowest effective dose: limit duration to the shortest period needed for symptom control. - Monitor renal function: especially in the elderly, dehydrated individuals, or those with pre‑existing kidney disease. - Avoid in late pregnancy: contraindicated during the third trimester due to fetal risks. - Take with food or milk: can reduce stomach irritation. - Store at room temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Ibuprofen can interact with several medicines; awareness helps prevent adverse outcomes.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of serious bleeding. - Other NSAIDs or aspirin: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may diminish antihypertensive effect and impair renal function.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Diuretics: may enhance renal side effects. - Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): modestly raise bleeding risk. - Lithium: ibuprofen can raise lithium serum concentrations.
