Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, usually shortened to NSAID. It works by reducing the production of the chemicals in the body that cause pain, swelling and fever.
The 400mg tablet is used for mild to moderate pain: headache, dental pain, period pain, backache, muscular and rheumatic pain, neuralgia, migraine, and the aches that come with a cold or flu. It is a pharmacy medicine, so a short consultation is needed before it can be supplied.
Like all NSAIDs it can irritate the stomach, so take it with or just after food and use the lowest dose that controls your symptoms, for the shortest time you need it. If you are still taking it after ten days, or it is not helping, speak to a clinician rather than carrying on.
