On this episode of the Real Life Pharmacology Podcast, I discuss ibuprofen pharmacology. Ibuprofen can raise the concentrations of lithium and increase the risk for toxicity. Compared to most other NSAIDs, ibuprofen has a relatively short half-life. This explains why it needs to be dosed more frequently than other agents. Ibuprofen can contribute to renal insufficiency, GI bleed risk, and CHF exacerbations.
