I was told by a doctor that Ibuprofen daily at 800mg for more than a week or two can cause stomach ulcers that can be extremely dangerous to your health. Someone close to me took this amount for over a month and had extreme ulcers in her stomach because her idiotic doctor told her to.
Also, there was a recent study that came out that mentioned taking ibuprofen daily can worsen the pain you’re trying to treat.
Ibuprofen can cause issues with stomach lining and ulcers, long term usage is usually with drugs like Duexis which adds famotidine (Pepcid AC). Its claimed to be different but I would imagine taking four of these and ~ 2-3 regular strength (10mg) famotidine pills would work roughly similar(26mg in Duexis).
