I'm no doc but I understand vasoconstriction to help g-tolerance by providing less room for blood to pool in the lower body. Long as these SI reports are, I wouldn't expect them to have listed all ibuprofen side-effects, just those that might have been a factor in this or another scenario.
Have flown several back-seat trips with RAFAT during pre-season training. It is still the case that pax do not wear g-suits, to avoid them inadvertantly fouling the flying controls. This makes for a challenging experience - and it wasn't the 6g display breaks that I found hardest, it was the 6.5g break to land (complete grey-out despite my best AGSM) and the sustained 4g turn that 8+9 pull at crowd rear whilst holding for what seemed like minutes while the synchro pair did their thing. Brutal!
