Background:Dye-free ibuprofen has been shown to relieve pain and reduce inflammation in a wide variety of conditions including fever, colds, and minor injuries. The recommended dose range for adults is 2% to 3%, and children and adolescents are generally tolerated well.
Objectives:Dye-free ibuprofen has proven to be a convenient and cost-effective alternative to oral ibuprofen in managing moderate to severe pain associated with fever and minor injuries.
Methods:We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (N=1,938 patients) to compare the safety and tolerability of ibuprofen 2% versus ibuprofen 3% tablets in adults with moderate to severe moderate to severe minor pain: the ibuprofen 3% tablets have been shown to be comparable in safety and efficacy to ibuprofen 2% and 3% tablets in adults, and no difference in the safety and tolerability of ibuprofen 3% versus ibuprofen 2% tablets was observed when compared to ibuprofen 3% tablets.
Results:The primary outcome was the change from baseline in a pain-free period compared to the baseline period at week 12 in patients who received ibuprofen 2% or 3% tablets (mean difference [S. D.], 0.42; 95% CI, 0.17 to 0.63; P=0.003). There were no significant differences between groups for the change from baseline period in the number of days on ibuprofen, or for the number of days on ibuprofen after week 12. No statistically significant difference in the number of days on ibuprofen after week 12 was observed between the ibuprofen 3% tablets and ibuprofen 2% tablets.
Conclusion:Our findings suggest that the 2% ibuprofen 3% tablets provide pain relief comparable to ibuprofen 2% and 3% tablets, and the 3% ibuprofen tablets provide analgesia comparable to ibuprofen 2% and 3% tablets, and that no significant differences in the number of days on ibuprofen after week 12 were observed between the ibuprofen 3% tablets and ibuprofen 2% tablets.

Common Brand Name(s): IBUS
SKUIbuprofen is used to relieve pain (such as headaches, menstrual cramps) and reduce inflammation (swelling). It belongs to a class of medications called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Ibuprofen works by blocking the effects of a chemical messenger called prostaglandins, which are released in response to pain or inflammation. This can help alleviate pain and inflammation associated with conditions like arthritis, muscle strains, and strain. It also reduces swelling (edema) and promotes healing. Ibuprofen is generally well tolerated and is often used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. However, it can cause some side effects such as headache, nausea, skin rash, and stomach upset. If you are experiencing Ibuprofen side effects, speak with your doctor or pharmacist before using this drug. A well-balanced stomach may also be important; try taking 2 tablets in your meals to see if it will work for you.
Dizziness or lightheadedness may occur as your body adjusts to the medication. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects.

Tell your doctor right away if you develop: persistent nausea/vomiting that doesn't stop, loss of appetite/waiter unusual appetite/waiting more than usual, unusual bleeding/biting.

Tell your doctor if you notice muscle spasms, stiffness, or pain in certain areas of the body. Spinal cord problems may occasionally occur, especially with long-term use. Wearing high--heel athletic shoes may help. Do not try to treat your low back pain with Ibuprofen; try wearing short-acting pain relievers such as Paracetamol or ibuprofen (such as Naloxone). Talk to your doctor if you have questions about why your pain has not improved. For example: why isn't it easier to sleep (time spent before and after exercise has decreased), less tension (time spent relaxing), less tension (time spent standing), less muscle stiffness/spasms.
