Nowadays, there are many medicines that can be taken by people of all ages and genders, but in the past, there were few types of medicines that young children could take when they have a fever.

Ibuprofen Syrup was made by Samil Pharm and was released in 1987. As soon as it was released, many parents who are raising children bought it and had it with their child or prepared in advance.

Since then, it has been used as an antipyretic and analgesic in children.

The active ingredient in Ibuprofen is ibuprofen. Ibuprofen is a typical antipyretic and analgesic ingredient. Oral drugs are used to treat post-traumatic pain, arthritis, and fever and pain caused by colds, and external drugs applied to the skin are used to treat acne.

It is classified as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic and exhibits anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase 1 and 2, which are involved in the production of prostaglandins that cause inflammation, fever, and pain in the body.
