Amazon Basic Care Ibuprofen PM is a medication that helps relieve occasional sleeplessness caused by minor aches and pains, making it easier for you to fall asleep and stay asleep. It works by reducing inflammation and pain in your body. For adults and children aged 12 and over, the recommended dose is 2 caplets taken at bedtime, and you should not take more than 2 caplets in a 24-hour period. One important warning is that this medication can cause severe allergic reactions, especially if you are allergic to aspirin, so it's crucial to stop using it and seek medical help if you experience symptoms like hives or swelling.
