Why Advil?

Advil® Works Differently To Provide Trusted Pain Relief

While there are many pain relievers available for sale without a prescription, it is important to know the differences between them. The pain reliever in Advil is ibuprofen, which is part of a class of drugs called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which also includes aspirin and naproxen sodium. Clinical studies have shown that when taken as directed, Advil is a safe and effective pain reliever.

 

Advil does not contain acetaminophen, an active ingredient that is included in many other pain relievers. Acetaminophen may cause severe liver damage when taken in excess of recommended doses.

 

For 25 years, patients and doctors have trusted Advil to deliver fast and long-lasting relief from many kinds of acute pain – headache, muscle aches, backache and minor arthritis pain. No other over-the-counter pain reliever has been proven stronger or to last longer on pain than Advil.

 

Any medication may cause side effects. You should not take more than the recommended dose because it will increase the risk of side effects. To maximize the benefit and reduce risk, it is important to use over-the-counter medicines responsibly according to the label and speak with a doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.

 

Please refer to the label for complete warnings and important information.

This review is from: Advil Tablets E-Z Open Cap, 200 mg, 150-Count Bottle (Health and Beauty)

After years of struggling with the cap on other Advil bottles I've purchased finally they have come out with an easy to twist cap. This is of course not for homes with small children and if you are a grandparent you should keep it high up in a cupboard that children can not access. But what a joy it was to open a bottle without so much fuss. Advil seems to work for me when I get a headache or muscle ache or menstrual cramps. However it DOES NOT work for backache. I am sorry to say. When my back went out over a month ago I just had to suffer until I went to the Chiropractor. This advil only seems to work for MINOR aches and pains. Also if you have a migraine this might not completely take it away. I usually have to put ice on the back of my neck. I knew there was something in my apartment I hadn't reviewed and this was it. lol

I have tried many products on the market and used to be a firm believer in tylenol for aches and pains till I switched to advil and what a difference. I will not switch back again as this is the medicine that works for me aand my family and have told many friends about it.
This is definitely a product I would recommend.
