Q: can i use ibuprofen gel as well as taking ibuprofen tablets?

: You could. The gel may allow you to take a lower dose of the oral tablets. Be aware of precautions however for the dosage of the oral tablets and the possible complications that may affect the gastrointestinal tracts and the kidneys.
