General Biology- Ibuprofen helps Altitude Sickness

Acute mountain sickness, or altitude sickness can be described as a really bad hangover. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, headache, fatigue, dizziness, and poor appetite. A new study found this common over the counter medicine could help. It could be used to prevent these symptoms from ever happening. Other medicines designed for altitude sickness have other side effects that are nasty to have, so Ibuprofen could be a great alternative.
