Ibuprofen sodium dihydrate belongs to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It is mainly used in pharmaceuticals to relieve various pains such as headaches, toothaches, and muscle aches, as well as to reduce fever.

This ingredient inhibits the production of prostaglandins, which are substances that cause inflammation and pain in the body. This effect reduces pain signals and lowers body temperature, resulting in analgesic and antipyretic effects.
