As far as I know they are the same thing but different brands may be slightly different such as nurofen quick release liquid capsules which work faster or nurofen plus which also has codeine in it.

I m agree with your GP, Norofen is better then Ibuprufen.
The contain of Nurofen are Ibuprufen and Codein.
For using as a pain killer, nurofen almost the better than Ibuprofen itself.
Its no doubt, if you said, you better using nurofen than ibuprufen,
you are already addicted by codein inside nurofen.

Most of us, living in a consumerism-laden society, have this notion that the costlier a thing is, the better it works.

Aspro or asprin. Ones a brand, the other is the item.
I consider it be a placebo.
