5 out of 5 stars A miracle drug!   August 10, 2009
Steven A. Peterson (Hershey, PA (Born in Kewanee, IL))
When I first experienced the acute phase of lower back pain, I went to an Emergency Room at a hosdpital and received a drug that left me in la-la land for a bit. It worked, serving as a muscle relaxant. But the la-la land part was not so wonderful (what can I say, I don't like drug-induced states of alternative consciousness!).

Since then, I have discovered that Ibuprofen can do the trick just about as well. A little rest plus Advil gives me relief (and it has been quite a few years since I have suffered acute lower back pain). In addition, this has helped me with rotator cuff discomfort and other aches and pains (with age, unhappily, aches and pains become more routine!).

So, I'm a satisfied customer. . . .

Advil is a good product for me. Though rarely used in our home when it's needed it's great stuff.


5 out of 5 stars Only brand name Advil for me   April 6, 2009

Everyone knows what Advil's good for -- fever, pain, inflammation. Does it work? For me, the answer is an absolute yes! Within half an hour tops, I am pain free.

There are generics available. Why do I like the brand Advil caplets? Because they are small, smoothly coated, shaped just perfectly to go down so easily. Those generics just aren't as pleasant to swallow. If I were short on cash, I might choose generic; but for now, the benefits of the size, shape and coating are worth the cost. It may also be worth it for more elderly people who have trouble swallowing.

I prefer Advil to Tylenol because Advil helps with inflammation, which Tylenol doesn't. Advil also lasts longer than Tylenol, although there is an extended release version of Tylenol available. Advil can be more upsetting to the stomach, so take it with some food.

Don't take Advil if you have ulcers or have a bleeding disorder, are going in for surgery, are on blood thinners. Taking too much Advil can hurt your stomach or kidneys.

5 out of 5 stars Feels So Good   March 19, 2009

Ordinarily I agree with James Koenig's reviews 1000 per cent. Not for nothing is he one one Amazon's top 100 reviewers. And yet, when he tells us we might as well just get the generic version of ibuprofen, as well as brand name Advil, I demur sharply.

Other reviewers recommend Advil for its ease of use, but I'm here to tell you the main reason to buy it is that it is tasty and sweet, rather like a cherry. If common sense and doctors warnings didn't preclude it, I would be popping Advils all day just to get that delicious taste in my mouth, like a kid in a candy store.

First week of January I had an industrial accident at my office when a large box of heavy paper stock tumbled down onto my foot from a great height. Rushed to the hospital, I found myself weak and faint, and when the doctor told me that I should be having an Advil every four hours for the next three months, to reduce swelling and to heal the fracture, I perked up considerable. Now in front of me as I type, is a king size dispenser of Advil, used to be an oversized Pez dispenser in black and gold, wearing Tim Lincecum's uniform, which some friends had bought me on a trip to the SF Giants stadium here. Now it dispenses Advil and I find myself looking at the clock wishing it was four hours later already. I'm hooked I guess, and a little piece of me wishes I could return to the days of youth when I needed nothing, no poppy or mandragora as Shakespeare says, but in the meantime I do enjoy a nice Advil every four hours, and as a side benefit, its healing atoms have sped the recovery of my swollen foot inside its sturdy surgical boot.
