Trust & Pharmacist Advice

Ibuprofen is an effective anti-inflammatory pain reliever, but it should always be taken at the lowest effective dose for the shortest time necessary. It is suitable for short-term use only.

Avoid taking ibuprofen with other NSAIDs such as naproxen or diclofenac unless advised by your doctor. If you regularly require pain relief, or your symptoms persist for more than a few days, seek medical advice to identify the underlying cause.

People with stomach ulcers, severe heart failure, kidney disease, liver disease or asthma triggered by NSAIDs should consult a healthcare professional before using ibuprofen. If you experience stomach pain, vomiting blood, black stools, difficulty breathing or signs of an allergic reaction, stop taking the medicine immediately and seek urgent medical attention.

• Are under 12 years of age or weigh less than 40kg
• Have previously experienced breathing difficulties, asthma or allergic reactions after taking NSAIDs

FAQs

1. What is Nurofen Rapid Relief Max Strength Liquid Capsules used for?

Nurofen Rapid Relief Max Strength Liquid Capsules contain 400mg of ibuprofen and are indicated for the short-term relief of headaches, migraine, dental pain, period pain, muscular pain, backache, rheumatic pain, neuralgia, fever and the aches and pains associated with colds and flu. Ibuprofen also helps reduce inflammation. Always use the medicine exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as advised by your pharmacist.

2. How quickly do Nurofen Rapid Relief Liquid Capsules work?

The liquid capsule formulation is designed to dissolve quickly, allowing ibuprofen to be absorbed faster than standard ibuprofen tablets. The time it takes to experience relief varies between individuals and depends on factors such as the type of pain, whether the medicine is taken with food and individual response. Always follow the recommended dosage instructions.

3. What is the difference between these capsules and standard ibuprofen tablets?

Both products contain ibuprofen as the active ingredient. However, Nurofen Rapid Relief Liquid Capsules contain ibuprofen in a liquid-filled capsule designed for faster absorption than conventional tablets. The active ingredient and maximum daily dose remain the same, so you should not take both products together.

4. How many capsules can I take in one day?

Adults and adolescents aged 12 years and over (weighing more than 40kg) should take one capsule with water, leaving at least four hours between doses if another capsule is needed. Do not take more than three capsules (1200mg) in any 24-hour period unless directed by your doctor.

5. Should I take Nurofen with food?

Nurofen can be taken with or without food. However, if you have a sensitive stomach or have experienced indigestion with anti-inflammatory medicines before, taking it with food or after a meal may help reduce stomach irritation.

6. Can I take Nurofen Rapid Relief for migraine?

Yes. Nurofen Rapid Relief Max Strength Liquid Capsules are indicated for the relief of migraine headache. If your migraine symptoms are severe, become more frequent or are different from your usual migraines, seek medical advice.

7. Can I take Nurofen with paracetamol?

In many situations, ibuprofen and paracetamol can be taken together because they work in different ways. However, you should always follow the dosage instructions for each medicine and ask your pharmacist if you are unsure whether combining them is appropriate for your circumstances.

8. Who should not take ibuprofen?

Ibuprofen is not suitable for everyone. It should not be used by people with a history of stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding related to NSAIDs, severe heart, liver or kidney failure, allergy to ibuprofen or aspirin, or during the last three months of pregnancy. Always read the patient information leaflet before use.

9. Can I drink alcohol while taking Nurofen?

Small amounts of alcohol are unlikely to affect the medicine directly, but alcohol may increase the risk of stomach irritation or gastrointestinal bleeding when combined with ibuprofen. It is sensible to limit alcohol intake while taking anti-inflammatory medicines.

10. Can I take Nurofen if I have asthma?

Some people with asthma are sensitive to ibuprofen and other NSAIDs, which can trigger breathing difficulties. If you have asthma, particularly if it has previously worsened after taking ibuprofen or aspirin, seek advice from your GP or pharmacist before using this medicine.

11. What should I do if my pain does not improve?

If your pain or fever persists despite treatment, or if symptoms worsen, stop self-treatment and consult your GP or pharmacist. Ongoing pain may indicate an underlying condition that requires further assessment rather than continued use of painkillers.
