Ibuprofen 600mg Tab Leg

My 90 year old mother has short term memory problems - badly! She claims the pill for pain that Dr. recently prescibed (Ibuprofen 600mg LEG) makes her confused. I am familiar with Ibuprofen, but I do not know what the LEG stands for. Does this prescription drug contain any narcotic? Or is it just Ibuprofen? What does the LEG stand for? Thanks!

Hello, Bob! How are you? How is your mother doing?

The LEG is just an abbreviation for the manufacturer of the tablet, so this is just Ibuprofen.

And while that's not a typical side effect, the elderly can be much more sensitive to medications than their younger counterparts, so it could be causing her more severe dizziness and such than it may to other people.

Is there anything else I can help with?
