How To Use

Before using this tube of gel for the first time, open it as follows:

  • Unscrew the cap, turn it upside down and then use the sharp point of the cap to pierce the membrane in the neck of the tube.

 

The 50g pack also contains a tube key.

The tube squeezer key:

To make Ibuleve Maximum Strength easier and more economical to use, a yellow tube squeezer key has been provided. Once fitted to the tube, simply turning the key will dispense the gel more easily for patients who experience difficulties in squeezing tubes. For economy, the key will also help expel the last few grams of Ibuleve Maximum Strength when the tube is nearly empty.

To fit the tube squeezer key:

  • Ensure that the tube nozzle has been pierced using the point of the cap.
  • Slide the slit of the key over the folded end of the tube.
  • Carefully turn the key to roll up the tube until the required amount of gel has been expelled.
  • Always replace the cap after use, leaving the key in place on the end of the tube.

 

To use the gel (for adults, the elderly and children over 12 years old):

  • Use the gel up to three times a day, or as often as advised by your doctor.
  • Lightly apply the gel to intact skin over the painful area.
  • Squeeze out a 2 to 5 cm length of gel (50 to 125 mg ibuprofen) onto the affected area, enough to thinly cover it, then massage gently until absorbed.
  • Wash hands after use, unless treating them.
  • Carry on using the gel in this way until your condition gets better.
  • If your symptoms worsen or continue for more than one week, discuss this with your doctor before continuing treatment.

 

If the gel comes into contact with broken skin or gets into the eyes, nose or mouth

  • The product may cause irritation if it comes into contact with broken skin or gets into the eyes, nose or mouth. If this happens, rinse the affected areas with plenty of water. If rinsing one eye, take care to avoid washing product into the other eye. If irritation persists, tell your doctor or pharmacist.

 

If the gel is accidentally swallowed

  • Symptoms may include headache, vomiting, drowsiness and low blood pressure.
  • If you experience any of these symptoms contact a doctor or hospital straight away.

 

If you forget to use this product

Do not worry if you occasionally forget to use this product, just carry on using it when you remember.

Product Details

Do not use Ibuleve Maximum Strength:

  • if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to ibuprofen or any of the other ingredients of Ibuleve Maximum Strength listed in Section 6;
  • if you are asthmatic, or suffer from rhinitis (allergic runny nose) or urticaria (hives) and have ever had a bad reaction to aspirin, ibuprofen or other NSAIDs in the past;
  • if you are pregnant or breast-feeding;
  • on broken, damaged, infected or diseased skin.

 

Before applying this product for the first time, make sure it is suitable for you to use:

Because Ibuleve Maximum Strength is delivered through the skin, directly over the painful area, there is less risk of the complications that sometimes occur when ibuprofen (or a similar anti-inflammatory painkiller) is taken by mouth.

However, in rare cases you may be at risk:

  • if you have a stomach ulcer (also called a peptic or gastric ulcer);
  • if you have ever had kidney problems;
  • if you have ever had asthma;
  • if you have ever had a bad reaction to aspirin or ibuprofen taken by mouth.

 

If any of the above apply to you, only use this product on advice from your doctor or pharmacist.

Warnings and precautions

Do not smoke or go near naked flames – risk of severe burns. Fabric (clothing, bedding, dressings etc) that has been in contact with this product burns more easily and is a serious fire hazard. Washing clothing and bedding may reduce product build-up but not totally remove it.

Take special care when using this product:

  • Use it only on the skin.
  • Do not use it on children under 12 years old unless advised by a doctor.
  • Keep the gel away from the eyes, nose and mouth.

 

Using other medicines

  • Interaction between Ibuleve Maximum Strength and blood pressure lowering drugs and anticoagulants (medicines that stop blood clotting) is possible, in theory, although very unlikely. If you would like more advice about this, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
  • If you are also taking aspirin or other NSAIDs by mouth, discuss this beforehand with your doctor or pharmacist because these may increase the risk of undesirable effects.
  • Please tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines including other medicines obtained without prescription.
