Very normal for ibuprofen. It can (probably will) cause nausea on an empty stomach. Milk coats your stomach helping keep the medicine from causing nausea. Learned this the hard way when I was a teenager and fractured my leg.

Can reduce the side effects of stomach inflammation and stuff from the pills.

They probably charged you $1 billion for something you can get at Walgreens for four dollars.

Yeah because it’s ibuprofen it will upset your stomach if it’s empty

NSAIDS can cause nausea if taken on an empty stomach and ulcers if taken in high enough doses for an extended period of time. Having food in your stomach cushions the stomach against the medication.

Yeah anything that coats your stomach is great for NSAIDs. Milk or food but at 800mg I’d opt for food.
