National Medicines Safety Agency bans any promotion of ibuprofen 400 mg from April 2. This concerns Advil, Nurofen, Spedifen and generics, all sold without a prescription.
This medication can cause serious side effects such as gastrodigestive bleeding and kidney damage. 30 million boxes sold each year in France (30 million compared to 4 million for the 200 mg version) But be careful: this ban on advertising does not call into question the benefit/risk balance.
