Safety Studies of Ibuprofen and Pseudoephedrine Combination In patients with upper respiratory infections treated with either ibuprofen 200 mg plus pseudoephedrine 30 mg (n = 294), acetaminophen 500 mg (n = 296), or placebo (n = 146), the frequency of adverse events (mostly gastrointestinal and CNS symptoms) was similar among the three treatment groups.
In a placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical study of 58 subjects with rhinovirus infection, pseudoephedrine given alone or with ibuprofen was well-tolerated. Symptoms associated with sympathetic stimulation tended to be more frequent in subjects who were treated with pseudoephedrine (60 mg, either alone or with 200 mg ibuprofen) than in those who received placebo.
