Warnings

Taking the medicine at the lowest effective dose for the shortest period necessary to relieve symptoms reduces the risk of side effects.

Anti-inflammatory and painkillers such as ibuprofen may be associated with a slightly increased risk of heart attack or stroke, especially when used in high doses. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment.

The use of IBUPROM ULTRAMAX concomitantly with other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors (COX-2 inhibitors), should be avoided.

Patients with a history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly elderly patients, should report any unusual gastrointestinal symptoms (especially bleeding) to their physician, especially at the beginning of treatment.

Particular caution should be exercised and the physician or pharmacist should be consulted before using the drug in patients with hypertension and/or heart failure with fluid retention, hypertension and edema associated with NSAID use in the past.

Ibuprofen may cause sodium, potassium and fluid retention in patients who have not previously had kidney disease. This in turn can cause swelling or even lead to heart failure or hypertension in patients predisposed to these disorders.

Long-term use of ibuprofen, especially in combination with other painkillers, may cause permanent kidney damage and the risk of kidney failure.

Patients at greatest risk of such reactions are those with renal impairment, heart failure, hepatic impairment, those taking diuretics, antihypertensives (ACE inhibitors) and the elderly. Patients who stop treatment with NSAIDs generally return to their pre-treatment state.

In case of long-term treatment with ibuprofen, periodic monitoring of liver and kidney function as well as blood cell counts is necessary, especially in high-risk patients.

During long-term treatment with high doses of analgesics, headaches may occur, which should not be treated with increased doses of drugs.

may mask signs or symptoms of infection (fever, pain and swelling).

IBUPROM ULTRAMAX should be avoided during chickenpox.

Alcohol consumption should be avoided while taking the drug, as it may increase side effects, especially those related to the gastrointestinal tract and nervous system.

Usage during pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you become pregnant while taking Ibuprom Ultramax, tell your doctor.
During the first and second trimester of pregnancy, your doctor will prescribe ibuprofen only if absolutely necessary. In this situation, the lowest possible dose should be used and the duration of therapy should be kept to a minimum.
You must NOT take this medicine in the last 3 months of pregnancy as ibuprofen can have very serious or even fatal effects on your baby’s heart and kidneys, even after just a single dose.

Breast-feeding
Ibuprofen is excreted in breast milk in small amounts. In the case of short-term use of ibuprofen at doses used to treat pain, harmful effects on infants appear unlikely. However, if longer use of ibuprofen is recommended, early discontinuation of breast-feeding should be considered.

Fertility
Ibuprofen may make it more difficult to become pregnant. Tell your doctor if you are planning to become pregnant or have problems becoming pregnant.

Side effects

The list of undesirable effects below includes all undesirable effects that have been observed with ibuprofen treatment, including those seen after long-term high-dose therapy in patients with rheumatic disease.

With regard to the following adverse drug reactions, it should be borne in mind that they are largely dose-dependent and their occurrence varies individually.

Patients taking IBUPROM ULTRAMAX should stop taking the drug and see a doctor immediately if they develop signs or symptoms of ulceration, mucosal damage or bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract (melaena, haematemesis), acute upper abdominal pain, blurred vision or other eye symptoms, skin rash or other hypersensitivity reactions, weight gain or swelling.

The most frequently observed adverse reactions concern the gastrointestinal tract. Ulceration, perforation (perforation) or bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract may occur, sometimes with a fatal outcome (especially in the elderly). They are not necessarily preceded by warning symptoms or may occur in patients who have experienced such warning symptoms.

The risk of GI bleeding is particularly related to the dose range and duration of ibuprofen use.

Taking ibuprofen, especially in high doses over a long period of time (2400 mg/day), may be associated with a slightly increased risk of arterial thrombosis (e.g. heart attack or stroke).

The most common side effects:

Common (affects up to 1 in 10 people):

  • heartburn, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, flatulence, diarrhoea, indigestion, constipation and slight gastrointestinal bleeding, which in exceptional cases may lead to anemia.
