Aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen,& acetaminophen are different substances

Although they are different there is in incresed liklihood you will be allergic to ibuprobin as well. I recently developed an allergy to both and have an identcal reaction (itchy welts on face).

I had a reaction to Naproxen. Hives, itchy and swelling, but to this day I can take ibuprofen with no problems.
