Blood thinners are commonly prescribed to prevent blood clots that can lead to heart attacks and strokes. Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is commonly used to relieve pain and inflammation. However, taking ibuprofen with blood thinners can increase the risk of bleeding and other complications [3].

According to DrugPatentWatch [1], ibuprofen does not have any known interactions with blood thinners such as warfarin or heparin. However, it is important to note that this does not mean that taking ibuprofen with blood thinners is safe.

GoodRx [2] warns that over-the-counter drugs like ibuprofen and aspirin should be avoided when taking blood thinners. These drugs can increase the risk of bleeding and may interfere with the effectiveness of blood thinners.

Harvard Health Publishing [3] also advises against taking NSAIDs like ibuprofen with blood thinners. The article explains that NSAIDs can interfere with the blood's ability to clot, which can increase the risk of bleeding. The article also notes that some blood thinners can interact with NSAIDs and increase the risk of bleeding even further.

In conclusion, while ibuprofen does not have any known interactions with blood thinners according to DrugPatentWatch [1], it is generally advised to avoid taking NSAIDs like ibuprofen with blood thinners [2][3]. Patients should always consult with their healthcare provider before taking any new medications, especially if they are taking blood thinners.
