Ibuprofen long term use

Hello,

If someone used Ibuprofen every day their whole life, taking only 3/4 tablets in 24 hours l, will they die? Is there a high chance that person would die of liver disease?

I've cut down my drinking to safer levels and ibuprofen has helped me with aches and pains for months. Once I feel comfortable with safer amounts of alcohol I'll likely only take ibuprofen for my knee and back pain that I've pretty much ruined from 20 years playing golf at a athletic level.

Plus it's just a hypothetical.
