(Sometimes spelled ibuprophen) This fever reducing, pain relieving, blood thinning compound was introduced in 1974 and is often used where pain relief is needed without a large anti-inflammatory effect. Ibuprofen is in a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Ibuprofen works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. Lower doses can control pain but higher doses are needed to treat inflammation. It is inferior to aspirin as an anti-inflammatory as it may cause gastrointestinal irritation and the effective dosage is greater. It is an alternative for some persons, however, who cannot take aspirin, due to ulcers or other stomach maladies.
