Treatment Summary
Ibuprofen is a pain relief medication first developed in 1960. It is a type of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and was first made available as a prescription drug in 1969 in the UK and 1974 in the US. Ibuprofen is also available over-the-counter and is taken as a racemic mixture. The S-enantiomer of the drug is more potent than the R-enantiomer and is responsible for the drug's pain relief effects.

Effectiveness
How Children'S Ibuprofen Affects Patients
Ibuprofen helps with pain, fever, and inflammation by blocking the production of substances that cause these issues. It is also used to reduce swelling, and can have a calming effect on the nervous system. Ibuprofen can be used to manage menstrual cramps and reduce fever and pain during migraines. It has also been studied to reduce neurodegeneration and help with Parkinson's disease, as well as decreasing the risk of breast cancer.
How Children'S Ibuprofen works in the body
Ibuprofen is an NSAID, which means it stops an enzyme that produces molecules responsible for pain, fever, and blood clotting. It works by reducing the activity of both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. By blocking the activity of COX-2, ibuprofen reduces inflammation, pain, fever, and swelling. Blocking the activity of COX-1 can lead to side effects like stomach ulcers.
When to interrupt dosage

Can I give my kid ibuprofen?
"There is no difference between adult and child medicine, as long as the dose is appropriate. You can use adult ibuprofen tablets for children 3, 6, 8, or 14 years old, if you carefully dose the medicine appropriately."
Answered by AI
Why is ibuprofen Not recommended for children?
"Ibuprofen is a safe drug when used correctly, but too high of a dose can make a child very sick. Giving too much can lead to stomach problems, confusion, and possible kidney problems."
Answered by AI
When should you not give a child ibuprofen?
"Ibuprofen is a drug that can be used to relieve pain in children, adolescents, and adults. It should not be used in children under three months of age, or given to children with bleeding disorders. Aspirin should never be given to children for pain relief unless it is advised by a doctor."
