Why would you go to the hospital to get an ibuprofen in the first place? Go to a doctor.

Why would you go to a doctor to get an ibuprofen in the first place? Go to a pharmacy.

Is ibuprofen actually not OTC in some countries? It's like one of the safest painkillers ever.

I think the heavier doses require a prescription, but you're right. You can just get it OTC at your pharmacy most of the time.
