Nurofen Express Period Pain (Ibuprofen)

Ibuprofen blocks the activity of cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX‑1 and COX‑2), which reduces the formation of prostaglandins that cause inflammation, pain, and fever. This inhibition leads to decreased sensitisation of pain receptors and a reduction in inflammatory swelling.

The appropriate dose is determined by a healthcare professional based on the individual's age, weight, and clinical need. Patients should follow the prescriber's instructions and the product label, and not exceed the recommended maximum daily amount.

Safety in pregnancy and lactation has not been fully established. It should only be used if the potential benefit outweighs the risk, and only after consulting a qualified healthcare provider.

Ibuprofen, the active ingredient in Nurofen Express, is an NSAID that provides both analgesic and anti‑inflammatory effects, whereas acetaminophen offers pain relief and fever reduction without significant anti‑inflammatory activity. Ibuprofen may be preferred when inflammation contributes to the discomfort.

Store the tablets at ambient temperature below 25 °C, in the original packaging, and protect them from moisture and direct sunlight to maintain product stability.

The product is taken orally as a tablet, usually with a full glass of water. It can be taken with food or a milky drink to minimise possible stomach irritation.

Serious risks include gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcer formation, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, kidney impairment, and rare but severe skin reactions like Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Prompt medical attention is required if any of these occur.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to ibuprofen or other NSAIDs, active peptic ulcer disease, severe heart failure, significant renal or hepatic impairment, or those in the third trimester of pregnancy should avoid using this product unless directed by a healthcare professional.
