Brufen DS Suspension (90ml) is a high-quality pharmaceutical product used for fast relief from high fever and moderate pain with a double-strength formula for older children, available for home delivery at PakMeds.

Brufen DS Suspension Ingredients and Usage

Brufen DS (Double Strength) Suspension contains a higher concentration of Ibuprofen compared to the standard pediatric version, providing 200 mg of the active ingredient in every 5 ml. In Pakistan, this formulation is intended for older children or situations where a lower volume of liquid is preferred to deliver a stronger therapeutic dose.

It is highly effective for managing high-grade fevers and more intense pain, such as juvenile arthritis or significant post-surgical discomfort. The higher concentration ensures that the child receives effective relief with less liquid to swallow. PakMeds ensures that parents have access to this potent pediatric formulation for effective symptom management when standard doses are insufficient.

How Does Brufen DS Suspension Work?

The double-strength formulation works by blocking the COX enzymes throughout the body, significantly reducing the production of prostaglandins. These prostaglandins are the key triggers for pain and the elevation of body temperature during an infection.

Because it is more concentrated, Brufen DS allows for a more robust antipyretic and analgesic response. It is rapidly absorbed, providing quick relief while maintaining therapeutic blood levels for a longer duration. This makes it particularly useful for controlling persistent fevers and ensuring the child can rest and recover effectively.

Brufen DS Suspension Side Effects

Due to its higher concentration, the potential for gastric irritation is slightly increased. It is highly recommended to give Brufen DS with food or a glass of milk to protect the child’s stomach. Other side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, or mild dizziness.

Rare allergic reactions, such as skin rashes or breathing difficulties, can occur. Parents should strictly follow the weight-based dosing chart provided by their healthcare provider. If your child develops persistent vomiting or unusual lethargy, PakMeds recommends contacting a pediatrician immediately.

List of Warnings:

• Do not exceed the daily dose limit based on weight.
• Use with caution in children with pre-existing kidney or liver issues.
• Ensure the child remains well-hydrated throughout the course of treatment.
• Not suitable for infants under 6 months of age without specialist medical advice.
• Always use the measuring spoon provided to ensure accurate dosing.
