Pharmacodynamics
The active component of the drug and dictates what is the pharmacodynamics of Ibuprom sprints in capsules. The analgesic effect of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) is obtained by inhibiting, inhibiting the formation of prostaglandins. Ibuprom muffles the intensity of pain manifestations, contributes to the relief of edema and the reduction of high body temperature. Due to its prolonged characteristics, a prolonged action of the drug is observed. The active substance effectively inhibits the aggregation of platelets (the ability of platelets to join - "gluing" the blood platelets) caused by collagen and adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Antipyretic properties Ibuprom sprints in capsules (antipyretic characteristics) are manifested in the effect of the drug on the cells of the hypothalamus.
The analgesic property of the drug is due to the arrest of the inflammatory process, a decrease in the synthesis of bradykinin and a decrease in the algogenicity of this chemical compound.
Anti-inflammatory nature of the drug is obtained in connection with a decrease in vascular permeability, activation of blood microcirculation, as well as blocking sources of energy supply of inflammation.
When administered orally, Ibuprom sprints in capsules penetrates into the gastric mucosa insignificantly, while the main component of the drug is absorbed already in the small intestine. In this case, the maximum concentration of the base substance in the blood plasma is reached after one to two hours. In the case of rheumatoid manifestations of the inflammatory process, ibuprofen reduces pain symptoms, stops the growth of puffiness, relieves joint stiffness.
Influencing the brain receptors responsible for the thermal regulation of the body, the drug manages to cope with the high temperature of the patient's body, demonstrating antipyretic characteristics. The effectiveness of the drug and the duration of its action depends on the starting temperature and the administered dosage. If the drug is administered once, then its effect can be observed for eight hours.
When menstrual pains in a woman caused by dysmenorrhea not of organic origin (primary dysmenorrhea) Ibuprom sprints in capsules reduces intrauterine pressure and intensity of muscular contractions of the uterus, which contributes to the relief of pain.

Pharmacokinetics
Metabolization of ibuprofen occurs almost entirely in the liver, with about 90% of the drug being disposed of by the kidneys and excreted together with urine in unchanged form or in the form of metabolites, partially secreted with bile. In the case of oral administration of the drug, the maximum concentration of the active substance in the blood plasma (Cmax) is observed even one to two hours after administration.
Pharmacokinetics Ibuprom sprints in capsules, confirmed by test studies, showed that in healthy people the half-life of the drug (T½) is about one hour forty minutes. In patients who have a history of kidney and / or liver disease, this indicator varies from 1.8 to 3.5 hours. High switching of the active substance to plasma proteins is noted - this index approaches 100.
Dosing and administration
Ibuprom Sprint in capsules is prescribed for adults and children over 12 years of age, and also having a body weight of more than 40 kg. Single dose of the drug is one to two capsules, corresponding to 0.2 - 0.4 g of ibuprofen. The drug should be taken every four to six hours.

The way of application and dose of the drug for children whose weight is less than 40 kg is selected individually. The maximum daily amount of ibuprofen is calculated as 20-30 mg per kilogram of body weight of a small patient. This figure is divided into three to four methods, the interval between them should be six to eight hours. Exceed the permissible dose of the drug is not worth it, since it is fraught with serious complications.
- For children whose body weight falls from 30 to 39 kg, a starting amount of 0.2 g (one capsule) is recommended. The maximum dosage during the day is 0.8 g of ibuprofen, which is equivalent to four capsules.
- For babies, whose body weight is in the range of 20 to 29 kg, a starting dosage of 0.2 g (one capsule) is recommended. The maximum dosage during the day is 0.6 g of ibuprofen, which is the equivalent of three capsules.

Interactions with other drugs
Earlier, a warning was sounded about the cautious admission of the drug, the measured dosage for each specific case. Even more vigilant to be with complex therapy. Interactions Ibuprom sprints in capsules with other drugs are rather ambiguous. In some cases, two drugs can enhance each other's action, while in others they can become antagonists.
Ibuprom sprints in capsules are contraindicated for joint use with other drugs related to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), as well as with acetylsalicylic acid, preventing the emergence of side symptoms. Joint use of ibuprofen with glucocorticoids or anesthetics is capable of provoking gastrointestinal bleeding, and also increases the risk of the occurrence of an eczema and ulcers on the mucosa of the digestive system.
Ibuprofen reduces the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs and drugs with diuretic properties. When combined with drugs that inhibit the process of blood coagulability, mandatory monitoring of this indicator is necessary.
Methotrexate and Ibuprom sprints in capsules are capable of provoking pronounced side effects. In the case of using ibuprofen together with zidovudine, the probability of hemarthrosis and hemorrhage (hematoma) increases, especially in patients who are HIV-infected. Tandem with digoxin makes it possible to obtain an increase in the quantitative indices of the active substances of medicament preparations in the blood plasma.
Ibuprom sprints in capsules and antithrombotic drugs provoke the occurrence of gastrointestinal bleeding. Tandem with antibiotics of the quinoline group can provoke a convulsive syndrome. Therapeutic therapy with ibuprofen and sulfonylurea requires a constant check of the quantitative index of glucose in the blood plasma. Complex treatment with the use of anticoagulants enhances the effect of the latter.
After the administration of mifepristone, it is necessary to withstand 8 to 12 hours before any NSAIDs are used, including Ibuprom sprints in capsules, since sharing will stop the effect of the first drug. It is strictly forbidden to take ibuprofen with cardiac glycosides. This combination negatively affects the human body, provoking heart failure, an increase in the number of glycosides in the serum, inhibiting the intensity of glomerular filtration. Reduce the ability of ibuprofen to absorb such drugs as colestyramine or antacids. The analgesic characteristics of the drug in question can enhance caffeine.
Storage conditions Ibuprom sprint in capsules A cool place, with a temperature not exceeding 25 ° C, protected from direct sunlight - these are the basic conditions for storing Ibuprom sprints in capsules. The drug should not be available to children.
