| In rare cases, the use of ibuprofen has caused serious side effects. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience black, bloody or tarry stools; abdominal pain; bloody vomit; blurred vision or other visual problems; rash; sudden weight gain; or swelling. |
Do not take other prescription or over-the-counter medications that contain ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil, others) while taking ibuprofen and oxycodone without first talking to your doctor.
Never take more ibuprofen and oxycodone than is prescribed for you. If your pain is not being adequately treated, talk to your doctor.
| Use caution when driving, operating machinery, or performing other hazardous activities. Ibuprofen and oxycodone may cause drowsiness or dizziness. If you experience drowsiness or dizziness, avoid these activities. |
| Do not drink alcohol while taking ibuprofen and oxycodone. Alcohol may increase drowsiness or dizziness. Alcohol may also increase the risk of dangerous stomach bleeding while taking this medication. |
| Ibuprofen and oxycodone may cause constipation. Drink plenty of water (six to eight full glasses a day) to lessen this side effect. Increasing the amount of fiber in your diet may also help to alleviate constipation. |
