Allergies to aspirin and ibuprofen are not necessarily the same, although they both belong to the class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). An individual may be allergic to one and not the other, as the chemical structures and mechanisms of action differ. However, some people who are allergic to aspirin may also have cross-reactivity with other NSAIDs, including ibuprofen. It's important for individuals with a known allergy to consult with a healthcare professional before taking any NSAIDs.
