Is it possible to become addicted to ibuprofen?!
Question:
Answers:
I feel it is possible mentally but have no proof that they are physically addicting. I have prescription strength ibuprofen and take it pretty regular. As far as I know there are no physical addictions related to ibuprofen, but if it works as well for you as it does me, it can be mentally addicting. Too much of anything is bad for your health, so try and "maintain" with the ibuprofen.

Anything that is mood altering can be addictive. Ibuprofen isn't usually addictive, but you can build a tolerance to it, meaning you need more to get the same effect.
Its also possible to take too much and cause kidney and liver problems.
