Ibuprofen: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
Ibuprofen works by inhibiting the effect of muscle tissue, which leads to an increase in the production of a painkiller. This increase in pain is why pain can occur at will and may be mistaken for swelling (edema), hence the use of NSAIDs in combination with an aspirin or other NSAIDs is essential to relieve pain and reduce inflammation.
Inform your doctor about any pre-existing medical conditions, take any medication, and have a discussion with that doctor before you take Ibuprofen.
Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the production of a chemical messenger which causes pain and inflammation.

It is not known whether this drug is also associated with bipolar disorder. See also Side Effects and Precautions section.
Folic acid is a necessary hormone for normal cells to function properly. When your body cannot produce it, folic acid is converted into another hormone called dihydrofolic acid. Dihydrofolic acid then acts as a potent vasodilator, increasing the blood flow to the area. This helps the heart beat faster, allowing the muscles to relax and strengthen. It is important to tell your doctor if this drug is causing you pain, nausea, or weakness. This may be a sign of kidney problems. Call your doctor immediately if you experience: stomach pain that is severe or lasts more than 10 days or a stomach upset that lasts more than 4 hours
Folic acid deficiency may cause conditions that make you dizzy or lightheaded. Precautions: Tell your doctor right away if you drink large amounts of alcohol.

Folic acid may increase the risk of getting broken down by the kidney. Your doctor will do lab tests at first to check for underlying kidney problems. Check your kidney function regularly and tell your doctor if you have ever had any changes in your menstrual pattern or how you look after children.
Folic acid is excreted by the body in the urine and is passed to the kidneys. However, this does not mean that folic acid passes through your body. Contact your doctor immediately if you develop any symptoms of kidney problems. Your doctor may want to see if this drug can help you with your pain, nausea, vomiting, or weakness. Some people may have a higher risk of developing kidney problems if they have folic acid deficiency. Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of this medication when giving a dose.
