Report #90545

[gotcha] Recommending ibuprofen or aspirin as default first-line pain/fever relievers without screening

Screen for pregnancy and asthma before recommending NSAIDs. Default to paracetamol/acetaminophen for fever or pain in these populations.

Journey Context:
NSAIDs are widely treated as benign, but they can trigger severe bronchospasm in asthmatics \(Samter's triad\) and cause premature closure of the ductus arteriosus in pregnancy \(especially after 20 weeks\). Failing to screen silently exposes high-risk groups to life-threatening complications.
