A member asked:

I need some help on this! i might have ibuprofen allergy and need alternatives.?

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 Ibuprofen to help determine what other meds you can safely use for pain or fever.
