Possible Side Effects) which in some cases may be extremely serious or even life threatening • have a history of asthma or other allergy disorders • have liver, kidney, or bowel problems • have Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), a condition of the immune system resulting in joint pains, skin rashes, kidney or liver problems • have or have had high blood pressure or heart problems.

 Speak to your doctor who will advise you on your treatment and may wish to monitor you • have a history of bleeding in the stomach or gut.

Skin reactions Serious skin reactions have been reported in association with Ibuprofen caplets treatment. You should stop taking Ibuprofen caplets and seek medical attention immediately, if you develop any skin rash, lesions of the mucous membranes, blisters or other signs of allergy since this can be the first signs of a very serious skin reaction. There is a risk of renal impairment in dehydrated adolescents.

 Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before you take this medicine. Anti-inflammatory/pain killer medicines like Ibuprofen may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack or stroke, particularly when used at high doses. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment. You should discuss your treatment with your doctor or pharmacist before taking Ibuprofen if you: - have heart problems including heart failure, angina (chest pain), or if you have had a heart attack, bypass surgery, peripheral artery disease (poor circulation in the legs or feet due to narrow or blocked arteries), or any kind of stroke (including ‘mini-stroke’ or transient ischaemic attack ‘‘TIA’’). - have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, have a family history of heart disease or stroke, or if you are a smoker. - have an infection.

 Ibuprofen may hide signs of infections such as fever and pain. It is therefore possible that Ibuprofen may delay appropriate treatment of infection, which may lead to an increased risk of complications. This has been observed in pneumonia caused by bacteria and bacterial skin infections related to chickenpox. If you take this medicine while you have an infection and your symptoms of the infection persist or worsen, consult a doctor without delay.

Other medicines  Tell your doctor if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription. Ibuprofen may affect or be affected by some other medicines. For example: • other pain killers including aspirin or other NSAIDs • medicines used to treat bacterial infections • medicines that are anti-coagulants i.e. thin blood/prevent clotting e.g. aspirin/acetylsalicylic acid, warfarin, ticlopidine • medicines used to treat depression, such as selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and lithium • medicines used to treat diabetes • medicines used to treat epilepsy • medicines that reduce high blood pressure (ACE inhibitors such as captopril, beta blockers such as atenolol medicines, angiotensin-II receptor antagonists such as losartan) • medicines used to treat viral infections, such as zidovudine and ritonavir • medicines used to treat heart failure • medicines used to treat various illnesses
