Unless my memory is failing me, 800mg 4x daily was what I was prescribed for back pain. After ibuprofen was available OTC I certainly had periods where I was taking something on this order. I remember reading of a player for the Seahawks who suffered catasptrophic kidney failure from excessive ibuprofen consumption, IIRC he was taking 6400mg daily. This was what made me wean myself from ibuprofen, I've since gone back to taking it if the pain is bad enough and inflammation plays a role, though not in these dosages and only for a few days at a time. Hopefully, this won't do too much damage to my system.
