A member asked:
Hello, i've been suffering from cough for few days. i went to a pharmacy and the lady gave me "ibuprofen ratiopharm". should it be helpful enough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not clear: Ibuprofen ratiopharm appears to be ibuprofen alone. This is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. If you have aches, pains and headaches this may help alleviate those symptoms. It may not help significantly with your cough. Unfortunately with your limited provided history, it's unclear as to the exact source of your cough as many things including viral and bacterial infections could be at play
