Product overview
About Ibuleve 5% Gel (100g)
The household staple in its largest tube: 5% ibuprofen gel for backache and muscle pain, massaged in where it hurts. Anti-inflammatory relief with only a fraction reaching the bloodstream — and 100g means the tube outlasts the season, not just the strain.
Topical first, tablets second
For localised muscle and joint pain, guidance now points to rub-in NSAIDs before oral ones — same anti-inflammatory action, delivered to the tissue that needs it, kinder to the stomach. The big tube suits the household where someone always has a niggle.
How to use
Adults 12+: massage into the affected area up to three times daily, unbroken skin, wash hands after.
Good to know
NSAID rules travel with the format: pharmacist check alongside oral anti-inflammatories, with aspirin-sensitive asthma, or in pregnancy. Persistent or unexplained pain wants a diagnosis before more gel.
