    I have 12.8 codeine/200mg ibuprofen tabs. What is the max ibuprofen dose at one time? I can't seem to find this info.

    Also what is the difference between "mg" and "mg/kg"?

    Thanks!

    The doctor has recommended that I take up to 1600mg, but no more. I've seen people take 2400mg and be fine though.

    mg/kg is milligrams per kilogram. Meaning you can take a certain amount of a drug, based on how many kg your body weighs.

    To add to topnotch's post toxic effects are unlikely at doses below 100 mg/kg.
