In these cases, your doctor will advise you to start treatment with the lowest available dose and possibly the concomitant use of stomach-protective medicines (misoprostol or proton pump inhibitors). This should also be considered if you are taking low dose aspirin or other medicines that may increase the risk of stomach and intestinal diseases (see section \"Other medicines and Nurofen\"). Bleeding, ulceration and perforation of the stomach or intestine, which may be fatal, may occur at any time during treatment with all NSAIDs, with or without warning symptoms or a previous history of serious gastrointestinal events. Therefore, tell your doctor about any uncommon gastrointestinal symptoms (especially gastrointestinal bleeding), particularly in the initial stages of treatment. If gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration occurs, stop taking Nurofen and contact your doctor; \u003cbr\u003e• suffer or have suffered from an inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease);\u003cbr\u003e • are taking medicines which may increase the risk of ulceration or bleeding, such as medicines used to treat inflammation and certain immune system diseases (oral corticosteroids), anticoagulants such as warfarin, medicines which may have an antiplatelet effect such as aspirin, medicines to treat depression (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) (see section \"Other medicines and Nurofen\");\u003cbr\u003e • suffer from high blood pressure and\/or severe heart disease (heart failure) as fluid retention, high blood pressure and swelling have been reported in association with NSAID therapy; \u003cbr\u003e• suffer from reduced liver and\/or kidney function, as the habitual use of painkillers such as Nurofen can lead to serious permanent kidney problems (with possible onset of kidney failure). Your doctor will advise you to carry out periodic tests during treatment;\u003cbr\u003e • suffer or have suffered from asthma (difficulty breathing) or allergic reactions as you may experience shortness of breath;\u003cbr\u003e • suffers from clotting problems; \u003cbr\u003e• suffer from a chronic autoimmune disease that causes problems in various parts of the body, especially the skin (systemic lupus erythematosus) or mixed connective tissue disease, as the risk of aseptic meningitis increases; manifests the first signs of a hypersensitivity reaction after taking Nurofen. If this occurs or is suspected, you should stop taking Nurofen and consult your doctor. Medically assisted measures must be initiated by specialized medical personnel, in line with the symptoms;\u003cbr\u003e Anti-inflammatory\/pain-relieving drugs containing ibuprofen may cause a prolongation of bleeding time by reversibly inhibiting platelet aggregation;\u003cbr\u003e • have an infection – see section “Infections” below.\u003cbr\u003e   \u003cbr\u003eAnti-inflammatory\/pain-relieving drugs such as ibuprofen may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack or stroke, especially when taken in high doses. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You should discuss your treatment with your doctor or pharmacist before taking Nurofen if you have:\u003cbr\u003e • heart problems including heart attack, angina (chest pain) or if you have had a heart attack, coronary artery bypass surgery, peripheral artery disease (poor circulation in the legs or feet due to narrowing or blockage of the arteries) or any type of stroke (including 'mini-stroke' or 'TIA', transient ischaemic attack);\u003cbr\u003e • high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, a family history of heart disease or stroke, or if you are a smoker.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Skin reactions \u003cbr\u003eSerious skin reactions including exfoliative dermatitis, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) have been reported in association with ibuprofen treatment. Stop using Nurofen and contact your doctor immediately if you notice any of the symptoms related to these serious skin reactions described in section 4.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Infections\u003cbr\u003e Nurofen may hide the symptoms of infections such as fever and pain. It is therefore possible that Nurofen may delay adequate treatment of the infection, which could increase the risk of complications. This has been observed in pneumonia caused by bacteria and bacterial skin infections related to chickenpox. If you take this medicine while you have an infection and the symptoms of the infection persist or get worse, contact your doctor immediately.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChildren and adolescents\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDo not\u003c\/b\u003e give this medicine to children under 12 years of age.\u003cbr\u003e Caution is advised in dehydrated adolescents (12-18 years) as there is a risk of impaired renal function.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePossible side effects\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If you experience any of the following side effects \u003cb\u003eSTOP\u003c\/b\u003e treatment and contact your doctor:\u003cbr\u003e • allergic reactions, including serious ones, which may include: hives, itching, purpura, swelling of the face, mouth and throat (angioedema), difficulty breathing (bronchospasm or dyspnoea), altered heart beat (tachycardia), low blood pressure (hypotension), anaphylaxis, shock and worsening of asthma; \u003cbr\u003e• flat, target-shaped or circular reddish spots on the trunk, often with central blisters, peeling skin, and ulcers of the mouth, throat, nose, genitals, and eyes.
