Etymology

The name 'Motrin' is derived from the active ingredient ibuprofen, which was initially discovered in the 1960s. Ibuprofen was created by a team of researchers led by Dr. Stewart Adams in the United Kingdom, who were looking for a safer alternative to aspirin that would not cause gastrointestinal bleeding. The patent for ibuprofen was granted in 1961, and it was subsequently marketed under the Motrin brand by the pharmaceutical company Upjohn. Motrin became available over-the-counter in the early 1980s, providing consumers with a widely used option for pain relief. Since then, Motrin and its generics have become among the most commonly used analgesics across the globe.
