http://www.gnc.com/health_notes/Drug/Ibuprofen.htm (only mentions stomach bleeding)

http://www.samhsa.gov/oas/DAWN/DetED...bles/T2.21.PDF (mentions a few thousand emergency room visits for alcohol + aspirin/ibuprofen, but gives no specific details)

http://www.aafp.org/afp/20000501/tips/10.html (study on risk of upper GI bleeding increasing when combining alcohol and ibuprofen/aspirin)

http://www.fda.gov/bbs/topics/NEWS/NEW00659.html (again, stomach bleeding)

http://www.medhelp.org/forums/hepati...hive/1224.html (discusses the possibility of ibuprofen contributing to liver problems but discounts aspirin doing so)

Thank you for asking me to research this a little more carefully; I learned a lot today!
