Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can continue ibuprofen while you are on Metoprolol, these two never interact with each other or does not affect the efficacy of each other. Keep in mind that prolonged use of ibuprofen can cause some side effects. You can try analgesiccs like Tramadol which is better tolerated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
