Ibuprofen is the generic name for many painkillers, inluding Motrim, Advil and Midol. It contains aspirin and belongs to a group of drugs that are known as being anti-inflammatory and without steriods. You should always take the dosage that is recommeded to avoid an over-dose. If you take more than 800 milligrams or 3200 mg per day, then this is too much for adults. For more information on ibuprofen, visit the Drug.Com website at http://www.drugs.com/mtm/ibuprofen.html.
