Ibuleve Gel 5%

Ibuleve Gel 5%:

What is Ibuleve?

Ibuleve offers fast and effective pain relief that's applied directly through the skin to target painful, inflamed areas. And a clinical trial has shown that Ibuleve Gel can work as quickly and effectively as 400mg ibuprofen tablets for treating painful injuries such as back pain, sprains and strains.

Ibuleve is easily applied and absorbed directly where you need it. Because the pain relief is targeted in this way, there is less risk of the side effects that can be associated with taking painkilling tablets.

 Ibuleve Gel provides fast and effective relief from:

- Backache
- Rheumatic pain
- Muscular pain
- Sprains and strains
- Common arthritic conditions

How does Ibuleve work?

Ibuleve has been specially formulated by UK experts in skin penetrating medicines, to make sure that the active ingredient (ibuprofen) penetrates through the skin and into underlying tissues. This is important because the skin normally behaves as a very effective barrier, preventing access by this route of administration.

The entire Ibuleve range is specially designed to be fragrance-free, colourless, non-greasy and cooling, so there are none of the characteristic smells or irritating skin sensations associated with some topical painkillers.

How to apply Ibuleve Gel 5%:

• Read and retain the enclosed patient information leaflet.
• Lightly apply 2 to 5cm of gel (50 to 125mg ibuprofen) over the affected area.
• Massage gently until completely absorbed.
• Wash hands after use, unless treating them.
• Repeat as required up to three times daily, or as instructed by a doctor.
• Do not exceed the stated dose. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist.
