How many 800mg ibuprofen can an 18 year old take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
3-4 times a day: 600- 800 mg 3-4 times a day on a full stomach. The original symptom for which they need it should be evaluated by a doctor and it should not be taken persistently. For persistent symptoms please have the 18 y/o be evlauated by a doctor.
