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

- Mild to moderate pain: provides analgesic relief for headaches, dental pain, and musculoskeletal discomfort. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature associated with infections or inflammatory processes. - Arthritis and other inflammatory conditions: decreases joint swelling and improves mobility in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

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

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort: nausea, dyspepsia, or mild abdominal pain. - Headache: transient headache episodes. - Dizziness: light‑headed feeling or vertigo. - Skin rash: mild erythema or itching.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding: ulceration or hemorrhage in the stomach or intestines. - Renal impairment: reduced kidney function or acute kidney injury. - Cardiovascular events: increased risk of heart attack or stroke, especially with high‑dose or prolonged use. - Severe allergic reactions: anaphylaxis, angioedema, or bronchospasm.

When using ibuprofen, several precautions should be observed to minimize risk. - Assess renal function: avoid use in patients with severe kidney disease or dehydration. - Monitor gastrointestinal health: use with caution in individuals with history of ulcers or bleeding. - Evaluate cardiovascular risk: limit use in patients with uncontrolled hypertension or known heart disease. - Review concomitant medications: check for other NSAIDs, anticoagulants, or corticosteroids that may increase adverse effects. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25°C in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

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

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of serious bleeding. - Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): heightened gastrointestinal bleeding risk. - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may reduce antihypertensive effect and impair renal function.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Other NSAIDs or aspirin: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - Diuretics: possible reduction in diuretic effectiveness and renal perfusion. - Lithium: ibuprofen may raise lithium serum levels, requiring monitoring.
