As ibuprofen is best taken with food, what foods/drinks to avoid when taking ibuprofen? i know obviously to avoid alcoholic drinks? and do i take it before, during or after food?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ibuprofen is advised to take with food or milk (ideally during, but can be shortly after). There are no specific food interactions, except alcohol may enhance adverse and toxic effects, such as GI bleeding.
