For Pain "I am a pretty big ibuprofen taker and have never had problems with ibuprofen ever. I tried a major brand after my PA prescribed three 200 mg every 6 hours. The pharmacy gave me this brand, and upon taking the first dose, I found I felt extremely horrible and was having a severe, stroke-like allergic reaction. Most horrible experience, truly."

Ibuprofen for Rheumatoid Arthritis "I had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. I had an allergic reaction to naproxen, so I started taking Motrin, and it was very effective. I have been in remission for about 18 years now."

For Period Pain "Ibuprofen is wonderful for period pain, takes an hour to work and I take 2 x 200 mg tablets every 8 hours. Have been taking ibuprofen for a few years now and it's always done the job so far, until this week, that is. I was admitted to the hospital with an immune system that almost shut down because of a reaction to ibuprofen. I consider myself very lucky that I did a routine blood test and found out this information, was told to stop taking the medicine immediately. Please be careful even if you've taken this medicine on a number of other occasions as I have done."
