Nurofen (Ibuprofen)

Ibuprofen, the active ingredient in Nurofen, is a non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drug (NSAID) presented as a 200 mg tablet for oral use. It relieves pain, reduces fever and decreases inflammation in adults and children when appropriate.

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

Ibuprofen acts on inflammatory pathways to provide symptomatic relief in several common conditions. - Headache: reduces pain intensity and associated discomfort. - Dental pain: alleviates postoperative and acute toothache. - Musculoskeletal pain: eases aches from strains, sprains and minor arthritis. - Fever: lowers elevated body temperature in febrile states. - Menstrual discomfort: diminishes cramps and associated pelvic pain.

Adverse reactions may range from mild to severe and should be monitored during therapy.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort: nausea, dyspepsia or mild abdominal pain. - Headache: transient headache may occur. - Dizziness: occasional light‑headedness. - Rash: mild skin redness or itching. - Elevated blood pressure: slight increase in some patients.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal bleeding: ulceration or hemorrhage in the stomach or intestines. - Renal impairment: reduced kidney function or acute kidney injury. - Severe allergic reaction: anaphylaxis, angioedema or bronchospasm. - Hepatotoxicity: liver enzyme elevations or hepatitis. - Blood disorders: thrombocytopenia or leukopenia.

When using ibuprofen, consider the following safety measures: - Assess medical history: review any previous gastrointestinal ulcer or bleeding events. - Monitor cardiovascular risk : patients with hypertension or heart disease may need closer observation. - Evaluate renal function : check kidney health, especially in the elderly. - Avoid concurrent NSAIDs: do not combine with other non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drugs. - Store at ambient temperature: keep the tablets in the original pack and protect from moisture.
