ibuprofen Infant Motrin, Infant Ibuprofen, Children S Advil, Infant S Ibuprofen, Children S Ibuprofen, Children S Ibu-Drops, Ibuprofen, Ibu-Drops, Profen Ib Uses Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), which relieves pain and swelling (inflammation). Ibuprofen Infant is used in children to reduce a fever and to relieve minor aches and pain. Ibuprofen Infant works by blocking the enzyme in your body that makes prostaglandins. Decreasing prostaglandins helps to reduce pain, swelling, and fever. Do not give Ibuprofen Infant to a child younger than 6 months of age unless directed to do so by the doctor. Storage Store at room temperature according to product directions away from light and moisture. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep all medicines away from children and pets. Overdose If overdose is suspected, contact your local poison control center or emergency room immediately. Symptoms of overdose may include: severe stomach pain, coffee ground-like vomit, unusually fast or slow heartbeat, trouble breathing, extreme drowsiness, loss of consciousness, or seizures. How To Use Shake the bottle well before each dose. Measure out each dose carefully with the dropper provided. Give Ibuprofen Infant by mouth with food or immediately after a meal as directed. Follow each dose with milk, juice, or formula. Keep the child from lying down for at least 30 minutes after taking Ibuprofen Infant. The dosage is based on your child s weight, medical condition, and response to therapy. Read the product instructions to find the appropriate dose for your child s weight, or consult the pharmacist or doctor if you have questions. If repeat doses are needed, they are usually given 6 or 8 hours apart; or as directed by the doctor. In certain conditions (e.g., arthritis), it may take up to two weeks, taken regularly, before the full benefits of Ibuprofen Infant take effect. If you are giving Ibuprofen Infant to a child for undiagnosed fever or pain, consult the doctor immediately if symptoms do not improve within 24 hours, worsen or last for more than 3 days, or if new symptoms appear.

Ibuprofen Infant should be used only when clearly needed during the first 6 months of pregnancy.

Ibuprofen Infant passes into breast milk. While there have been no reports of harm to nursing infants, consult your doctor before breast-feeding. Missed Dose If you are prescribed Ibuprofen Infant on a regular schedule (not just as needed ) and you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up. Drug Interactions Before using Ibuprofen Infant, tell the doctor or pharmacist of all prescription and nonprescription products your child may use, especially of: alendronate, other medications for arthritis (e.g., aspirin, methotrexate), blood thinners (e.g., warfarin), corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone), cyclosporine, high blood pressure drugs (including ACE inhibitors such as captopril, angiotensin II receptor antagonists such as losartan, and beta-blockers such as metoprolol), lithium, other NSAIDs (e.g., naproxen, celecoxib), water pills (diuretics such as furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide, triamterene). Check all prescription and nonprescription medicine labels carefully since many contain pain relievers/fever reducers (NSAIDs such as aspirin or naproxen) which are similar to Ibuprofen Infant. Ask the pharmacist or doctor about the safe use of those products. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval. Share and Enjoy!
