loving it so far :) This isn't really important, but ibuprofen is almost as likely to cause ulcers even when you take it with food. Ibuprofen is acidic, so it can cause some stomach irritation - that's why they say to take it with food. The part that really causes the ulcers is a secondary mechanism.
