Ibuprofen is used to relieve mild to moderate pain from headaches, dental pain, menstrual cramps, muscle aches, and minor injuries. It also reduces fever and helps manage inflammation associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Prescription ibuprofen is available in higher doses (up to 800 mg per tablet) than the OTC formulation (200 mg). A physician prescribes higher doses when standard OTC doses are insufficient for adequate pain or inflammation control.

Ibuprofen is generally not recommended for people with a history of stomach ulcers or GI bleeding, severe kidney or liver disease, heart failure, or those who have had a recent heart attack or stroke. It should also be used cautiously by people taking blood thinners, ACE inhibitors, or other NSAIDs.

Common side effects include stomach upset, nausea, heartburn, and headache. Taking ibuprofen with food or milk can reduce GI discomfort. Rare but serious risks include gastrointestinal bleeding, kidney injury, and increased cardiovascular events, particularly with long-term or high-dose use.

Combining ibuprofen with anticoagulants such as warfarin or with other NSAIDs significantly raises the risk of bleeding and GI complications. Your physician will review all of your current medications before prescribing to avoid dangerous interactions.

The duration depends on the condition being treated and your individual health profile. For acute pain, short courses of a few days to two weeks are typical. For chronic conditions like arthritis, long-term use requires regular monitoring of kidney function, blood pressure, and GI health.
