Contents of the pack and additional information

Ibuprofenbelongs to a group of medicines called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

This medicine is indicated for the treatment of fever, the treatment of mild to moderate pain including migraine, the treatment of arthritis (inflammation of the joints, including those of the hands and feet, leading to swelling and pain), juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis (a chronic disorder that causes cartilage damage), ankylosing spondylitis (inflammation affecting the joints of the spine), non-rheumatic inflammation, and primary dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation).

Do not take Ibuprofeno MABO-FARMA:

• if you have a severe liver or kidney disease.
• if you have had a stomach or duodenal ulcer or bleeding, or have suffered a perforation of the digestive tract.
• if you vomit blood.
• if you have active inflammatory bowel disease.
• if you have black stools or bloody diarrhea.
• if you have bleeding or clotting disorders, or are taking anticoagulants (blood thinners). If necessary, your doctor will perform blood clotting tests.
• if you have severe heart failure.
• if you are in the third trimester of pregnancy.

Warnings and precautions:

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take ibuprofen:

• if you have edema (fluid retention).
• if you have or have had any heart problems or high blood pressure.
• if you have asthma or any other respiratory problems.
• inform your doctor if you are already receiving ibuprofen treatment, as it may mask fever, making it difficult to diagnose a possible infection.
• if you have kidney or liver disease, are over 60 years old, or need to take the medication for a prolonged period (more than 1-2 weeks), your doctor may need to perform regular checks. Your doctor will tell you how often these checks should be done.
• if you experience symptoms of dehydration, such as severe diarrhea or vomiting, drink plenty of fluids and immediately contact your doctor, as ibuprofen in this case may cause kidney failure due to dehydration.

-if you have had or develop a stomach or duodenal ulcer, bleeding, or perforation, which may manifest as intense or persistent abdominal pain and/or black stools, or even without previous warning symptoms. This risk is higher when using high doses and prolonged treatment, especially in patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease and in elderly patients. In these cases, your doctor may consider adding a stomach protector medication.

-if you take anticoagulant medications that alter blood clotting, such as oral anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents like aspirin, or other medications that may increase the risk of bleeding, such as corticosteroids and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).

-if you have Crohn's disease (a chronic condition where the immune system attacks the intestine, causing inflammation that often results in bloody diarrhea) or ulcerative colitis, as ibuprofen-type medications may worsen these conditions.

-if you are taking diuretics (medications to increase urine production), as your doctor should monitor your kidney function.

-if you have systemic lupus erythematosus (a chronic condition that affects the immune system and can affect various vital organs, the nervous system, blood vessels, skin, and joints), as it may cause aseptic meningitis (inflammation of the meninges, the membranes that protect the brain and spinal cord, not caused by bacteria).

• if you have porphyria (a metabolic disorder that affects your blood and can cause symptoms like red urine, bloody urine, or liver disease), so your doctor can assess the suitability of ibuprofen treatment.
• if you experience headaches after prolonged treatment, do not take higher doses of the medication.
• It is possible to experience allergic reactions with this medication.
• Your doctor will perform a more stringent check if you receive ibuprofen after major surgery.
• It is recommended not to take this medication if you have chickenpox.
• if you have an infection (see the "Infections" section below)

It is essential to use the smallest dose that relieves or controls pain and not to take this medication for longer than necessary to control your symptoms.

Precautions in elderly patients

Elderly patients have a higher frequency of adverse reactions to NSAIDs, especially gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation, which can be fatal.

Skin reactions

Severe skin reactions have been reported with Ibuprofeno MABO-FARMA. Stop taking Ibuprofeno MABO-FARMA and seek medical attention immediately if you experience any skin rash, membrane lesions, blisters, or other signs of allergy, as these may be the first signs of a severe skin reaction. See section 4.

Severe skin reactions, such as exfoliative dermatitis, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), generalized acute pustular psoriasis (PEGA), have been reported in association with ibuprofen treatment. Discontinue ibuprofen treatment and seek medical attention immediately if you notice any symptoms related to these severe skin reactions described in section 4.

Cardiovascular precautions

Medications like Ibuprofeno may be associated with a moderate increase in the risk of heart attack or stroke, especially when used in high doses and prolonged treatment.Do not exceed the recommended dose or treatment duration.

If you have heart problems, a history of strokes, or think you may be at risk for these conditions (for example, you have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, or are a smoker), consult this treatment with your doctor or pharmacist.

These types of medications can cause fluid retention, especially in patients with heart failure and/or high blood pressure.

Signs of ibuprofen allergy, such as respiratory problems, facial and neck swelling (angioedema), and chest pain, have been reported. Stop using ibuprofen immediately and contact your doctor or emergency medical services if you observe any of these signs.

Respiratory problems

Ibuprofen should be used with caution in patients who have or have had asthma, bronchial asthma, or allergic diseases, as ibuprofen has been reported to cause bronchospasm, urticaria, or angioedema in these patients.

Infections

Ibuprofen may mask the signs of an infection, such as fever and pain. Therefore, it is possible that this medication may delay the appropriate treatment of the infection, increasing the risk of complications. This has been observed in pneumonia caused by bacteria and skin infections related to chickenpox. If you take this medication while having an infection and the infection symptoms persist or worsen, consult a doctor without delay.

Precautions during pregnancy and in women of childbearing age

Due to the association of ibuprofen-type medications with an increased risk of congenital anomalies/abortions, it is not recommended to administer this medication during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy, except in strictly necessary cases. In these cases, the dose and duration will be limited to the minimum possible. It is believed that the risk increases with the dose and duration of treatment.

In the third trimester, the administration of ibuprofen is contraindicated:

For women of childbearing age, it is essential to consider that ibuprofen-type medications have been associated with a decrease in fertility.
