Ibuprofen, the active ingredient of this medication, works by reducing pain and fever.

This medication is indicated for adults and adolescents weighing at least 40 kg (12 years or older) for the symptomatic relief of occasional mild to moderate pain, such as headaches, toothaches, menstrual cramps, muscle aches (muscle spasms) or back pain (lumbago), as well as in febrile states.

Do not take Ibuprofeno Onedose:

• If you have a severe liver or kidney disease.
• If you have had a stomach ulcer or bleeding, or have suffered a perforation of the digestive tract.
• If you vomit blood.
• If you have black stools or bloody diarrhea.
• If you have bleeding or clotting disorders, or are taking anticoagulants (medications used to "thin" the blood). 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, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to take this medication.

• If you have an infection; see the "Infections" heading below.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 receiving ibuprofen treatment as it may mask fever, an important sign of infection, making its diagnosis more difficult.
• 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 to 2 weeks), your doctor may need to perform regular checks. Your doctor will tell you how often these checks should be done.
• If you present symptoms of dehydration, e.g. severe diarrhea or vomiting, take plenty of fluid and immediately contact your doctor, as ibuprofen in this case could cause kidney failure as a consequence of dehydration.

-If you have had or develop a stomach 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, in patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease, and in elderly patients. In these cases, your doctor will consider the possibility of associating a stomach protector medication.

• If your doctor has prescribed anantiplatelet medication(to prevent blood clots) containing acetylsalicylic acid, and you are also taking ibuprofen, you must separate the intake of both medications. To do this, you can follow either of the following guidelines:
• • Take the dose of acetylsalicylic acid and waitat least half an hourbefore administering the dose of ibuprofen.
  • Take the dose of ibuprofenat least 8 hours beforeadministering the acetylsalicylic acid.

-If you are taking medications that alter blood clotting, such as oral anticoagulants, antiplatelet medications of the type of acetylsalicilic acid, also inform your doctor about the use of other medications that may increase the risk of bleeding, such as corticosteroids and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

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

-If you are being treated with diuretics (medications to urinate) because your doctor must monitor your kidney function.

-If you have systemic lupus erythematosus (a chronic disease 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, which are the membranes that protect the brain and spinal cord, not caused by bacteria).

-If you have intermittent acute porphyria (a metabolic disease that affects your blood and can cause symptoms such as reddish urine, bloody urine, or liver disease), so that your doctor can assess the advisability or not of treatment with ibuprofen.

-If you experience headaches after prolonged treatment, do not take higher doses of the medication.

-It is possible that you may experience allergic reactions with this medication.

-Your doctor will perform a more strict control if you receive ibuprofen after undergoing major surgery.

-It is recommended not to take this medication if you have chickenpox.

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

Skin reactions

Severe skin reactions associated with ibuprofen treatment have been reported. Stop taking ibuprofen and see your doctor 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.

CARDIOVASCULAR PRECAUTIONS

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen may be associated with a small increase in the risk of suffering a heart attack or stroke, especially when used in high doses. Do not exceed the recommended dose or treatment duration.

You should inform your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medication if:

• You have heart problems, including heart failure, angina (chest pain), or if you have had a heart attack, bypass surgery, peripheral artery disease (problems with circulation in the legs or feet due to narrowing or blockage of the arteries), or any type of stroke (including a "mini-stroke" or transient ischemic attack "TIA").
• You have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, a family history of heart disease or stroke, or if you are a smoker.

Furthermore, this type of medication may cause fluid retention, especially in patients with heart failure and/or high blood pressure.

Infections

Ibuprofeno ONEDOSE may mask the signs of an infection, such as fever and pain. Therefore, it is possible that Ibuprofeno ONEDOSE may delay the appropriate treatment of the infection, which may increase the risk of complications. This has been observed in pneumonia caused by bacteria and in bacterial skin infections related to chickenpox. If you take this medication while you have an infection and the symptoms of the infection 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 cases where it is strictly necessary. In these cases, the dose and duration will be limited to the minimum possible.

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

For women of childbearing age, it should be noted that ibuprofen-type medications have been associated with a decrease in the ability to conceive.

Interference with diagnostic tests

If you are to undergo any diagnostic test (including blood, urine, etc.), inform your doctor that you are taking this medication, as it may alter the results.
