    Author: Agus B, Nelson J, Kramer N, Mahal SS, Rosenstein ED.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1990 Aug; 17(8):1094-6. PubMed ID: 2213786.
    Abstract:
    We describe 2 cases of acute encephalopathy in patients with connective tissue disease caused by small doses of ibuprofen. In addition to aseptic meningitis, both patients had altered mental status and focal neurologic signs, ophthalmoplegia in one and hemiparesis in the other. The spectrum of neurologic manifestations of ibuprofen hypersensitivity is reviewed.
