About Ibusoft 400mg Soft Gelatin Capsule

Ibusoft 400mg Soft Gelatin Capsule is used to relieve mild to moderate pain, inflammation, and fever in adults and paediatrics above 6 months of age. It helps to treat conditions such as menstrual cramps, headache, neuralgia (nerve-related pain), migraine, back pain, dental pain, swelling and stiffness in joints and muscles, cold, and flu symptoms.
 
Ibusoft 400mg Soft Gelatin Capsule contains 'Ibuprofen', which works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body.
