A member asked:
Is it safe to take 800mg of ibuprofen, after using biofreeze cream?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: the active ingredient of most Biofreeze products is menthol. The active ingredient of ibuprofen is a nonspecific COX2 inhibitor. They should complement each other in reducing pain resulting from local inflammation.
