Can Aspirin and Ibuprofin give you a stomach ulcer?

Ideally no, if you have a previous history of gastric or duodenal ulcer. Ibuprofen and related analgesics act by inhibiting an enzyme called COX2 (cyclo oxygenase 2). This enzyme produces prostaglandins, which are essential for maintaining the gastric/duodenal mucosa. Prostaglandins also maintain blood circulation to the epithelial (membrane) lining. Thus, inhibition of prostaglandins may be ominous, particularly in the vulnerable.
