Ibuprofen/paracetamol, sold under the brand name Combogesic among others, is a fixed-dose combination of two medications, ibuprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID); and paracetamol (acetaminophen), an analgesic and antipyretic. It is available as a generic medication.

Medical uses

Ibuprofen/paracetamol is indicated for the short term management of mild to moderate acute pain.
