FDA laboratory tests have shown that the most commonly used OTC pain and fever drugs for adults are ibuprofen, which can be taken with or without food. However, it was found that ibuprofen, when taken with food, caused a significant increase in the number of babies born with birth defects, as well as an increase in the number of babies born with birth defects in children younger than five years.
The FDA, however, has determined that it is not making a safety determination to treat children with birth defects in the family. The FDA determined that it should not be prescribing ibuprofen, as it has not evaluated the safety of this drug in children.
According to the manufacturer of OTC pain and fever drugs, Aleve Inc. and its affiliates, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. and Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. are selling the drug OTC to children under the age of 16 and to adults over the age of 18. Teva and its affiliates are also selling the drug for children under the age of 16.

The FDA recommends that parents or guardians of infants and children who are ill should avoid using OTC drugs, especially over-the-counter pain and fever drugs, as they are potentially dangerous for children.
The FDA is reviewing the agency’s determination that OTC pain and fever drugs are not safe for children under the age of 16.
