Long-term use of Brufen (ibuprofen) can actually cause or worsen severe stomach issues, like gastritis or ulcers, while also leading to rebound headaches. While Famtac (famotidine) helps reduce stomach acid, it may not be enough to counteract the irritation from Brufen. I gently recommend discussing this with a doctor to safely taper off Brufen and explore alternative pain relief. Please consider seeing a gastroenterologist for your stomach and a neurologist for your headaches to find a safer, more effective long-term treatment plan.
