 Motrin® (ibuprofen) available is 800 mg, which is only available with a prescription. There are lower strengths available, some of which do not require a prescription.
 
Your Motrin dosage will be based on several factors, such as the medical condition being treated, other medical conditions you have, and other medications you are taking. It is important to take the lowest effective dose for the least amount of time in order to treat your condition. This will decrease the chances of serious side effects occurring.
