Taking oral pain relief medications like ibuprofen has occasionally led to kidney issues, worsening of ongoing stomach ulcers, and allergic reactions in the lungs for those prone to asthma. Even though using ibuprofen topically absorbs into the system less than when consumed, there's a slim chance of these side effects. Hence, individuals with existing stomach ulcers, previous kidney conditions, asthma, or those who've reacted adversely to aspirin or ibuprofen when consumed should consider medical consultation before applying this gel.

If conditions don't improve or worsen, it's advised to seek medical insight.

Users should refrain from smoking or getting close to open flames when using this product. There's a heightened risk of severe burning. Materials like clothes, beddings, or bandages that come in contact with this substance can easily catch fire, posing a significant fire threat. While washing these items might lessen the residue, it won't completely eradicate it.
