Ibuprofen can temporarily inhibit platelet function.Patients with blood clotting disorders should therefore be carefully monitored.If taken for a long time, regular checks of liver values, kidney function and blood counts are necessary. Prolonged use of painkillers may cause headaches, which should not be treated with increased doses.

Since central nervous side effects such as tiredness and dizziness can occur at higher doses, the ability to react can be impaired.In this case, do not drive a car or operate machines.
