    Here in Belgium, even ibuprofin needs a prescription. Certainly DPH.

    Then again, here weed is still illegal (possession of 3g decriminalized) and the actually very beneficial stuff like LSD and psilocybin are also highly illegal.

        You need a prescription for pills of 600mg ibuprofen. 400mg is available over the counter without prescription at any pharmacy. So you could just do 1,5 pills of 400mg and not have a prescription.

        Well ibuprofin is pretty damaging to your liver depending on conditions and many people take it without food which is much more damaging than with food.

        That being said, you can call for a prescription and a 50 pack of it is like 0.50€ lol

          Are you thinking of acetaminophen? Without googling, my head canon says that acetaminophen damages the liver, while ibuprofen damages the kidneys. But I could be way off.
