Brief Answer:
It will not affect the fetus.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Brufen is a safe pain killer in pregnancy. It is a category B drug and can be used as and when needed. Also since your last periods were on 26th Oct, your pregnancy is still to be confirmed. A single tablet in therapeutic dose will not affect your baby in any way in case you conceive in this cycle. Please do not worry.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
