Special warnings.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine. Ibuprofen should not be taken in the last 3 months of pregnancy, as it can cause major heart, lung and kidney problems in the fetus. If used at the end of pregnancy, it can cause a tendency to bleed in both the mother and the child and reduce the strength of uterine contractions, delaying the onset of labor. Treatment during the first 6 months of pregnancy will only be recommended by your doctor if it is absolutely necessary. The medicine belongs to a group of medicines (NSAIDs) that can affect fertility in women. This effect is reversible when treatment is discontinued. Ibuprofen passes into breast milk in very small amounts and breastfeeding should not usually be discontinued during short-term treatment. However, if you are recommended long-term treatment, definitive discontinuation of breastfeeding should be considered.

Driving and using machines

In general, ibuprofen does not have adverse reactions on the ability to drive or operate machinery. However, as adverse reactions such as fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness (reported as common) and visual disturbances (reported as uncommon) may occur at high doses in individual cases, the ability to drive or operate machinery may be affected. This effect is accentuated in the case of concomitant consumption of ethyl alcohol

Packaging. Blister: 10 tablets.
