Ibuprofen is a phenylpropionic acid NSAID introduced into the United States in 1974 as a prescription product intended to treat arthritic conditions at daily doses of up to 2400 mg. It was subsequently approved for daily doses of up to 3200 mg/day, and then as a prescription drug to treat mild to moderate pain in 1978. Since it became available to consumers in 1984, over 100 billion 200 mg tablets of ibuprofen have been sold OTC in the United States alone.
