You can rely on these tablets to provide effective relief from headaches, migraines, and general pain. Each tablet contains 200mg of ibuprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing inflammation and blocking pain signals. This pack contains 96 tablets, giving you a convenient supply for managing occasional pain and discomfort.

The tablets are suitable for adults and children over 12 years old when used as directed. You can take them for various types of pain including headaches, dental pain, period pain, muscular pain, and symptoms of cold and flu. The medicine starts working within 30 minutes of taking it, with effects typically lasting 4-6 hours.

How Ibuprofen Works to Reduce Pain and Inflammation

Ibuprofen belongs to a group of medicines called NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). It works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals your body produces in response to injury or illness. These chemicals cause pain, swelling, and inflammation at the site of injury.

By reducing prostaglandin production, ibuprofen 200mg tablets help to decrease both pain and inflammation. This dual action makes it particularly effective for conditions where inflammation contributes to your discomfort, such as headaches, muscle strains, and joint pain. The medicine is absorbed into your bloodstream through your digestive system and distributed throughout your body to where it's needed.

Who Can Use These Pain Relief Tablets

These tablets are suitable for most adults and children over 12 years old who need temporary relief from mild to moderate pain.
