Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, Excedrin)

NSAID, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic

To relieve moderate to severe pain as an

adjunct to opioid analgesics.

Can be taken as capsules,

chewable tablets, and infusion.

ACE inhibitors, ARBs, beta-blockers, aspirin,

cyclosporine, digoxin, diuretics, lithium, methotrexate,

pemetrexed, and alcohol use.

All forms except ibuprofen lysine: angioedema, asthma,

bronchospasm, nasal polyps, rhinitis, or urticaria caused

by hypersensitivity to aspirin and other NSAIDs. For

ibuprofen lysine: bleeding, coagulation defects, and

congenital heart disease.

CNS: aseptic meningitis, CVA, dizziness, headache, nervousness,

seizures. CV: fluid retention, heart failure, hypertension, and MI.

EENT: amblyopia, epistaxis, stomatitis, and tinnitus. GI: anorexia,

constipation, diarrhea, elevated liver enzymes, epigastric discomfort,

ulceration, and hepatitis.

Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis,

juvenile arthritis, reduce fever, ductus

arteriosus, migraine pain, and nausea.

Should not be used in pregnant women starting at 30 weeks gestational; should be avoided in patients with recent MI; risk of heart failure increases with use of NSAIDs; GI tract bleeding, perforation and ulceration may occur without warning or symptoms. Monitor liver enzymes, BUN, serum creatine, CBC for decreased hemoglobin and hematocrit, and blood glucose levels in diabetics due to the sucrose in oral suspension.

Blocks the activity of cyclooxygenase, the enzyme needed for

prostaglandin synthesis. Prostaglandin synthesis is an important

mediator in the inflammatory response, which causes local

vasodilation with swelling and pain. With the blocking of

cyclooxygenase, inflammatory symptoms subside.

Adults and children older than 12 y/o age may take nonprescription ibuprofen every 4 to 6 hours as needed for pain or fever. Children and infants may be given nonprescription ibuprofen every 6 to 8 hours as needed for pain or fever, but should not be given more than 4 doses in 24 hours. Ibuprofen may be taken with food or milk to prevent stomach upset. Take ibuprofen exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than directed by the package label or prescribed by your doctor.
