ibuprofen should be used strictly as prescribed to you by your medical practitioner. This is usually used to relieve mild to moderate pain including headaches and muscular pain. Ibuprofen should also be taken in the route that the doctor has instructed. This is traditionally taken by ingestion (swallowing).

By snorting ibuprofen, you will get the effects faster as there are more membranes in the nose. However, Ibuprofen is formulated carefully so that only a certain amount at a certain time can get into your blood stream. When used in the traditional form of ingesting, it can dissolve slowly in your stomach without causing much unwanted risks.

Long term snorting of Ibuprofen (or for this matter any drug) causes damage to the nasal passage including bleeding or discharge, loss of smell and severe pain.
