What is the maximum daily dosage of Ibuprofen for adults?

  1. 2.0 grams

  2. 3.2 grams

  3. 4.5 grams

  4. 5.0 grams

The correct answer is: 3.2 grams

Ibuprofen is a common over-the-counter pain reliever and anti-inflammatory medication. The maximum daily dosage for adults depends on various factors such as age, weight, and medical conditions. However, the maximum recommended dosage for most adults is 3.2 grams per day. Option A is too low and may not effectively relieve pain and inflammation, while options C and D are too high and can increase the risk of side effects and potential overdose. It is always important to consult with a doctor or follow the recommended dosage on the medication label.
