Ibuprofen 400mg Tablets - 96 Tablets (Brand May Differ)

Ibuprofen 400mg Tablets for Effective Pain Management

You can rely on these tablets to provide relief from various types of pain and inflammation. Each tablet contains 400mg of ibuprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing the production of prostaglandins - chemicals in your body that cause pain, inflammation and fever.

This pack contains 96 tablets, giving you a convenient supply for managing ongoing conditions or keeping as a household essential. The tablets are suitable for treating headaches, migraines, back pain, muscle pain, joint pain, period pain, and symptoms associated with cold and flu.

How Ibuprofen Works in Your Body

When you take ibuprofen, it blocks the action of cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2) that produce prostaglandins. By reducing prostaglandin levels, ibuprofen decreases inflammation, pain signals, and fever. This mechanism makes it particularly effective for conditions involving inflammation such as joint pain and muscle strains.

The 400mg strength provides stronger pain relief compared to lower doses, whilst remaining within safe over-the-counter limits. You should start to feel the effects within 30-60 minutes of taking a tablet, with peak effectiveness typically occurring after 1-2 hours.

Who Can Benefit from These Tablets

These ibuprofen 400mg tablets are suitable for adults and children over 12 years who need effective pain relief. They work particularly well for inflammatory conditions and can be used alongside other treatments from our pain relief range.

The tablets are especially helpful for people experiencing:

• Tension headaches and migraines
• Back pain and muscle aches
• Joint pain and arthritis symptoms
• Period pain and menstrual cramps

Why Choose This Higher Strength Formula

The 400mg strength offers more effective pain relief than standard 200mg tablets, making it suitable for moderate to severe pain. This means you may need fewer tablets throughout the day, improving convenience whilst maintaining effective symptom control.

Each tablet is film-coated to make swallowing easier and to protect the active ingredient. The larger pack size of 96 tablets provides better value and ensures you have sufficient supply for ongoing treatment needs.

Clinical Suitability and Storage Requirements

You should store these tablets in a cool, dry place below 25°C, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children. The tablets have a long shelf life when stored correctly, making them suitable for keeping in your medicine cabinet.

Before taking these tablets, ensure you read the patient information leaflet carefully and check that ibuprofen is suitable for your individual circumstances. Some people may need to avoid ibuprofen due to medical conditions or interactions with other medications.
