The Management of Low Back Pain in the Emergency Department Worldwide, low back pain is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders, and it constitutes one of the primary complaints in emergency departments. A review of the literature reveals studies comparing ibuprofen to various agents (such as paracetamol, nimesulide, acetaminophen), and these studies suggest the use of ibuprofen due to its similar or superior efficacy and its safety profile. However, there is a lack of randomized controlled double-blind comparisons between the commonly recommended single doses of ibuprofen, which are 400 mg and 800 mg. Therefore, the objective of our planned study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of ibuprofen in the forms of 400 mg and 800 mg, which can be administered as a single dose, in the treatment of acute mechanical low back pain, as recommended in all guidelines.
