Can ibuprofen treat bursitis effectively and what dosages or precautions should be followed to ensure safety and effectiveness?
Ibuprofen can treat bursitis by reducing inflammation and pain. Typical dosages are 400-800 mg every 6-8 hours. Avoid exceeding 3200 mg/day and consider kidney function and gastric protection.
Ibuprofen, an NSAID, is effective for bursitis relief. Usual doses are 400-800 mg three times daily. Long-term use requires medical oversight due to potential gastrointestinal and renal side effects.
