What is Ibu
IbuprofenThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryIbuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) derived from propionic acid and it is considered the first of the propionics.[A39074] The formula of ibuprofen is 2-(4-isobutylphenyl) propionic acid and its initial development was in 1960 while researching for a safer alternative for aspirin.[A39075] Ibuprofen was finally patented in 1961 and this drug was first launched against rheumatoid arthritis in the UK in 1969 and USA in 1974. It was the first available over-the-counter NSAID.[A39076]
On the available products, ibuprofen is administered as a racemic mixture. Once administered, the R-enantiomer undergoes extensive interconversion to the S-enantiomer _in vivo_ by the activity of the alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase. In particular, it is generally proposed that the S-enantiomer is capable of eliciting stronger pharmacological activity than the R-enantiomer.[A39194]

Ibu Reviews: What are patients saying about Ibu?

2/2/2009 I'm currently taking 2400mg/day and would like to increase my dosage to 3200mg. Is this possible? I haven't experienced any negative side effects so far.
Patient Q&A Section about ibu
These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.What is a normal IBU?
"The bitterness in American mass market lagers ranges from 5 to 10 IBUs, Bavarian hefeweizens from 8 to 12 IBUs, amber lagers from 20 to 25 IBUs, American pale ales from 35 to 40 IBUs, American India pale ales (IPAs) from 55 to 70 IBUs, and “double IPAs” and American barley wines from 65 to 100 IBUs."
Answered by AI
What is considered a high IBU?
"There are beers with IBU ratings of over 1000, but most beer has an IBU rating of between 5 and 120. 5 is very low bitterness and 120 is very high bitterness."
Answered by AI
Is 40 IBU bitter?
"Malt adds sweetness, so maltier beers can come across as sweeter, like a dark stout. Guinness, with more malt, tastes sweeter to most drinkers than Odell 90 Schilling, a Scottish-style ale that has a bitter bite on the finish."
Answered by AI
What does IBU stand for?
".
IBU stands for International Bitterness Units, which is a scale used to measure the level of bitterness in a beer. The more specific measurement of IBUs gauges the parts per million of isohumulone from hops in a beer, which is what gives beer its bitterness."
