A member asked:

What do i do if motrin allergy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tylenol (acetaminophen): Tylenol (acetaminophen) would be a reasonably safe alternative. You should see an allergist to discuss the specific symptoms that you have had with Motrin (ibuprofen) to help determine what other meds you can safely use for pain or fever.
