Taking ibuprofen with warfarin increases your bleeding risk. Ibuprofen can thin your blood and interfere with warfarin's effects, making it harder for your blood to clot properly. This could lead to dangerous or life-threatening bleeding.

What to do: Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking ibuprofen while on warfarin. They may suggest a safer pain reliever. Never stop either medication without medical guidance. Report any unusual bruising, bleeding, or blood in urine or stool to your doctor immediately.
