A member asked:
Is it safe to take two 800mg ibuprofen at the same time ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I would never advise it. The proper maximum dose in a prescribed setting is 800mg. The frequency of side effects increases, specifically in women over 60. A couple of the worst include intestinal bleeding and declining urine production. Pleas consult you doc if your pain management is not responsive to your current treatments.
