Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat pain, inflammation, and fever. It is available in 400 mg and 600 mg from our secure online pharmacy.
While Ibuprofen is effective on its own for treating pain and inflammation, there are several products available over the counter from pharmacies that contain Ibuprofen alongside other pain relief medications.
You may find ibuprofen in treatments for colds and flu, painful periods, joint aches (arthritis) and back pain. Moreover, ibuprofen is available in various formulations, including syrups, gels, creams, as well as tablets and capsules.
If you don't have time to visit your pharmacy, you can get Ibuprofen 400mg online from Prescription Doctor following a short online consultation. Complete our online questionnaire, and our doctor will assess your case and determine whether Ibuprofen is suitable for you.
Orders approved before 3pm on weekdays are dispatched from our UK-based pharmacy the same day via a next-day delivery service.
Ibuprofen blocks cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes, which help the body to synthesise prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are chemicals released in response to pain. When the prostaglandins reach the site of the injury, they cause inflammation.
By blocking the enzyme, the production of prostaglandins is stopped, and their effects are reduced.
You can order Ibuprofen online from Prescription Doctor. Simply complete our short medical questionnaire to determine if the treatment is right for you.
Ibuprofen is commonly used to help a variety of health conditions, such as:
This is just a few of the conditions for which Ibuprofen can be used. If you are suffering from moderate to severe pain due to other issues, then the chances are that it may be relevant and useful to you as well.
Our online doctor can determine if Ibuprofen is suitable for you. All you need to do is answer a few questions about your general health and condition, which our doctor will review.
Depending on the severity of your condition and how well you respond to treatment, your dosage may need to be adjusted. Prescription Doctor offers Ibuprofen 400mg and Ibuprofen 600mg through our online prescription service.
For adults, take one or two tablets with a glass of water every four hours during or shortly after eating. If you experience indigestion after taking Ibuprofen, try taking it with a small glass of milk.
Always follow the doctor's prescription and do not exceed the recommended or prescribed dose.
Do not take more than 1,200mg of Ibuprofen in any 24-hour period.

Do not take Ibuprofen if you are allergic to Ibuprofen or any other ingredients listed in the accompanying leaflet.
If you experience an allergic reaction to Ibuprofen, stop taking the medicine and seek emergency medical attention by going straight to the A&E department of the nearest hospital. Take any packaging and remaining medicine with you so that doctors know exactly what you have taken.
Signs of an allergic reaction include:
Do not take Ibuprofen if you are pregnant, think you might be pregnant or are breastfeeding. Consult your doctor for more information.
You should ask a doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking NSAIDs while pregnant or breastfeeding. Your GP would be in the best position to advise you on the right pain medication to take.

Do not take Ibuprofen past the expiry date printed on the packaging.
Never throw away medicine via household or water waste. Ask your local pharmacy to dispose of any unwanted or expired medication on your behalf.

If you are unsure whether Ibuprofen is suitable for you, speak to your doctor.
It’s also important to mention any existing health conditions or other medicines you may already be taking when you go through your free assessment. This is to ensure we can offer you the most suitable drug for your requirements and reduce the risk of it interacting with anything else you’re taking.
Please inform our doctor of all medications you are currently taking, including those prescribed by your doctor or purchased over the counter, as well as any health and herbal supplements.
Read the patient information leaflet carefully before you start taking this medicine. If you are unsure about any information presented in the leaflet, ask a pharmacist for assistance.
If you forget to take Ibuprofen when you should, take it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue to take Ibuprofen as you normally would. Do not take more Ibuprofen to make up for the dose you missed.
If you accidentally take more Ibuprofen than you should, seek immediate medical attention by contacting your doctor right away or going to the accident and emergency department of the nearest hospital. Take the packaging with you, even if it's empty, so that doctors know exactly what you've taken.
It is unlikely that Ibuprofen will affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. However, if Ibuprofen is taken with other medications, you may experience dizziness or sleepiness. If you experience any side effects which may impair your concentration, you should avoid driving or operating machinery until you feel well enough to do so.
You should avoid alcohol while taking Ibuprofen. Drinking alcohol may increase your risk of side effects such as nausea or dizziness.
It is generally regarded as safe to take ibuprofen alongside paracetamol and other painkillers.
Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking multiple medications to ensure they are safe to use together.
Ibuprofen is not an addictive substance, and it is highly unlikely to become addicted to Ibuprofen. If you are worried you may be developing an addiction to prescription painkillers, you should speak to your doctor.
Adults should not take more than 2400 mg a day.
If you are unsure about the maximum daily dose of your medicine, check the label or read the patient information leaflet enclosed with your medicine.
Brufen is a brand of Ibuprofen. Other brands of Ibuprofen include Nurofen and Calprofen. They all contain the same active ingredient, ibuprofen, albeit at different amounts. You should consult your doctor or pharmacist to determine the most suitable treatment for you.
Unlike paracetamol, which works at the site of pain and doesn't reduce inflammation, Ibuprofen works across the body to reduce inflammation. Studies have proven Ibuprofen to be more effective at treating certain types of pain, such as headaches, than paracetamol.
Ibuprofen starts working between 20 and 30 minutes after it is taken by mouth. Topical administration of Ibuprofen may take up to 2 days to start working.
While Ibuprofen can be purchased over-the-counter, Prescription Doctor can provide a stronger dose for those suffering moderate to severe pain. Moreover, we can deliver your treatment straight to your door the next day.
