| Abstract | An analysis of Italian spontaneous adverse drug reactions (ADR) reporting database highlighted a potential association between hypothermia and ibuprofen in children. Hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature of 35 °C (95 °F). Ibuprofen is the most prescribed NSAID for the treatment of fever and moderate pain in children. We aimed to analyze the cases of ibuprofen-associated hypothermia retrieved in the Italian database in order to contribute to the discussion on this potential association.We extracted all suspected cases of ibuprofen-associated hypothermia from the Italian spontaneous reporting database and from VigiBase up to December 2015.We considered the proportional reporting ratio (PRR) as a measure of disproportionality for the Italian cases and the information component (IC) for the reports from VigiBase. We performed a case-by-case analysis to exclude duplicates.Nineteen cases of hypothermia associated with ibuprofen use were retrieved from the Italian spontaneous reporting database (PRR 19.8, CI 95 %, 12.0–32.9). The reports concerned ten females and nine males with an average age of 2.5 years.Up to 31 December 2015, 168 cases of hypothermia associated with ibuprofen were reported to VigiBase, with an IC of 2.05 (IC025, 1.82). Among these, 126 cases involved children (49 % males) with an average age of 4.4 years.Although the risk of this ADR is unknown so far, the widespread use of this drug recommends the need for further studies to better characterize this possible association. Clinicians and pharmacists but also parents should be aware that this risk is theoretical as not yet been confirmed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
