Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that was developed in the 1960s as a safer alternative to aspirin. It is synthesized commercially using either the Boot process or Hoechst process. Ibuprofen is used to treat fever, pain, and inflammation and while it generally has mild side effects, long term use has been linked to more severe issues like heart attacks or stomach bleeding.
