The first fast-absorbing prescription ibuprofen
Oxprofen™ reaches peak blood levels as quickly as diclofenac potassium, with the safety and efficacy of ibuprofen: an alternative to diclofenac and opioids in acute pain.
Prescribers who need speed reach for diclofenac or opioids.
Diclofenac sits at the higher-risk end of the NSAID class for cardiovascular events. Health systems are working to cut opioid use in acute pain. Ibuprofen is the most studied NSAID, and at 400 mg it compares favourably with injected morphine in single-dose acute pain studies, but at the prescription dose it is slow to absorb.
Oxford league table of analgesics: ibuprofen 400 mg NNT 2.5; morphine 10 mg IM NNT 2.9.
