One of the concerns that emerged early in the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic was whether taking Ibuprofen could increase the risk of contracting a serious case of the virus. That concern was based on a statement that apparently came from France’s health minister at the time. There wasn’t any actual research or data to suggest Ibuprofen was dangerous with COVID-19 at the time, but we have since learned more about the relationship. The question over Ibuprofen’s potential effect of COVID-19 wasn’t clear-cut. The authors concluded that there was no reason to withhold Ibuprofen solely because of a COVID-19 infection.
