Are Ibuprofen 800mg (IP 466) tabs, made by Amneal Pharmaceuticals, prescription only, or can they be bought over-the-counter? I've had several disc herniations for almost 20yrs.Tired of the stigma associated with pain meds, I went off the stronger meds (such as Oxycontin) approximately 2 yrs ago. I've tried large doses of Motrin, which was getting expensive, and eventually tried the Ibuprofen 800mg tabs. They've worked for me (1 tab twice daily) but I'm almost out and would like to use them regularly. They're a lot less expensive than Motrin or other brand names. Please, advice? Thanks! ## Hello, NeedAdvice! How are you? That dosage is only available by prescription. The reason for that is due to the fact that there are some risks associated with long-term use of hig...

I have Ibuprofen and it kinda got in a dusty area, so to clean them real quick. I put them in water for two seconds, and they started to get all sticky and rough on the outside. Are they still okay and good? ## Hello, Anthony! How are you? While it's likely that they didn't become dangerous from this occurrence, they may have lost potency and could have become contaminated, so they might make you sick, if you take them. It would likely be best to just dispose of them and obtain new tablets. This is a NSAID, which is used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach irritation and increased risk of bleeding. Is there anything else I can help with?

After I started taking this pill my left leg started having massive sharp pains and it got worse every day.

Why is this happening and how do I get my leg back to normal? ## This medication is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and the FDA does warn that it can increase the risk of bleeding, which means there is a risk you've experienced a blood clot. If that is the case, your life could be in danger and you need to consult a doctor immediately. How are you doing, now? Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications?

ibuprofen 800 mg the pill is oval & white G800 on 1 side other side just plain white aspirin looking no coating or capsule ## I found a capsule white with no imprints at all on it. What is it? ## Clara, I am sorry, there is no possible way to identify it if there are no markings on it. All U.S. precription drugs, by law, must have unique imprints to allow for their identification, so it could be something over the counter, or a foreign drug. ## How many Milligram is a Ibuprofen pill with the number 18 on one side of it?

Hi! Im ana,i have a horrible tooth ache, in believe is an infection,i took and ibuprofen 800mg 2 hrs ago and it's doesn't go away,can i take hydrocodone 10 now, i really need to get ride of this pain. Thank you ## Hello, Ana! How are you feeling? Ideally, you should see a dentist, that way they can discover the root of the problem, prescribe appropriate medications, if necessary and fix whatever underlying issue has caused the tooth ache. The FDA classifies Hydrocodone as a narcotic, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation.

I have a white tablet. It may be an out of date entexpse, humibid la, sulfatrim800,or ibuprofen 800mg. Imprint in only on one side: RC SPE with a line in center. It is large and white, oblong in shape. I need to find out, I see that other people can't find it either - that is why I think it is something expired. ## It doesn't necessarily mean that it is expired, it could mean that it is something available over the counter and those aren't required to have their imprints logged with the FDA. Since I haven't been able to find any listings for this, I have to make the guess that it is probably something that's available over the counter. Does anyone recognize this tablet?

Could meloxicam 15mg be taken alongside 800mg ibuprofen for RA? My Dr prescribed the meloxicam 15mg once daily. I've been taking the ibuprofen 800mg every 4 to 6 hours. Can I take both or is it safer to just take one? ## Since they are both nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, you should stick with one or the other.

If taking it helps, you need to tell your dr. ## Hi Willy, Sorry to hear about the extent of your pain. From what I've found they actually do make a combination of Hydrocodone + Ibuprofen under the following brand names: Vicoprofen, Reprexain, and Ibudone. Perhaps you could ask your doctor about trying one of these as an alternative to the 325mgs of Acetaminophen, if you have any concerns about it's potential cumulative effects on liver health with long term use? Overcoming the pain is what matters, but I just try to encourage the safest methods possible if it can be helped. None the less, I hope...
