Yesterday, I had outpatient surgery for a hernia repair.

The doctor told me that I should take an over the counter pain reliever per directions and he also prescribed some prescription paind pills if things got bad. We had some house branded acetominephen at home (the ingredient in Tylenol), which was out because the pain meds also included acetominophen as an ingredient.

My son drove me home and we stopped at a Walgreens to get the prescription filled. I checked out the non-tylenol type pain relievers to see what I would get to supplement the prescription pain pills.

For me, the ibuprofen based meds...

Advil Liquigels are great. But I prefer the Liquigels. They work quickly and relieve my pain. I only take them for back aches however, because they do not seem to work on my headaches. But any kind of muscle pain they are great on. I never leave the house without them and always have them in my medicine cabinet.

I do prefer Advil Liqui-Gels to other pain relief pills or even the regular brownish red Advil pills. The liquid gel capsules go to work a lot faster after you swallow them, as compared to the hard pills, because the gel casing dissolves quickly in your stomach and releases the medication immediately into your blood stream.

There is no other ibuprofen pain reliever that cures my headache within 30 minutes like this particular Advil does. When I pop one of the Liqui-gels, I know that my sinus pain or headache will be gone in 20 to 30 minutes.

Advil cures stress headaches, sinus headaches, caffeine...

I use Advil Liqui-gels every day at least twice a day, which some may say is to much for my stomach or liver. As a child I was diagnosed with Rhuematoid arthritis and since I was 12 I have used Advil brand products. I have found that Liqui-gels are faster acting then regular tablets and are easy to swallow. About fifteen minutes after I take a dose I feel complete relief from the inflamation of my joints due to my arthritis. As a housekeeper in a big hospital, this is very important to me!! Advil always makes the box easy to read, you can look at it and immediately know how many to take how often...

Advil liqui-gels are one of the few pain relievers I have tried that actually work. I have a back problem that flares up periodically, and about two years ago it got bad enough that I went to see a doctor. He recommended that I take the liqui-gels-he said they work faster and better. I pretty much laughed it off...I mean, all Advil is the same, right? Wrong! The liqui-gels worked wonders on my back pain, and so I started using them for all of my aches, pains, headaches and also for my occasional migraines. While they don't completely knock out the migraine pain, they are the best medication by...

The liqui-gels work fast and efficiently, definitely the way to go. They get rid of any pain or discomfort due to headaches, cramps, whatever. These are my go-to pain killers when I need pain relief. I hardly ever get headaches, but when I do I take a few of these liqui-gels and they dissolve my headache quickly. I use these pills mostly to lessen the discomfort from cramps during my period, so ladies I highly suggest using Advil liqui-gels if you suffer the same problem during "that time of the month." I usually take one more than the recommended dosage and I have never had any problems. Advil...

I absolutely LOVE Advil liquigels. They are the only thing I take when I have a headache or cramps. No other product I have tried works as fast and lasts as long as Advil when I have cramps - it's great! I no longer have to worry about not being able to do things, because Advil takes care of all of my pain. I was also born with a dislocated hip, so I suffer from arthritis pain a lot. Advil handles that pain with no trouble at all! If I even feel any twinge of pain coming on, I take 2 Advil and it's gone before it even gets bad. All in all, it is the best product out there I've found. Nothing...

I don't know what I would do without Advil Gel Caps.  These little babies are lifesavers when I get a bad headache.  Due to having Scoliosis I get frequent headaches and backaches.  Sometimes they get so bad that my head is pounding and can't do anything buy lie down until they are gone.  The great thing about the Advil Gel Caps is that they dissolve and go to work quickly.  They seem to work much quicker than other over the counter pain relief medicines that I have tried.  I would recommend Advil gel caps to anyone who doesn't have serious stomach issues and wants quick pain relief.

                                 I am living with Fibromyalgia, I am in constant pain and have been
for around 9 years. I won't lie and say that Advil Liquid gels takes away all of my pain but
unlike other over the counter drugs it does help to take the edge off, I do not like to take prescription drugs (even though I need them) I worry about becoming an addict....so I will reach for the Advil first.

I am a chronic migraine sufferer and have used several different over the counter medications to try to relieve my pain.  There are specific migraine medications such as exedrin migrain, tension migraine, etc.  I am one that tries to avoid taking medication as much as possible and rely on healthy food, essential vitamins and good rest.  But for those time when you need extra help, Advil gelcaps have given me instant relief from my migraines without the drowsy or jittery feelings that other pills give me.

The liquid version does seem to work at least 5 minutes faster and it does not upset my stomach as the regular tablet sometimes did. This brand name ibuprofen retails for slightly less than other name brands in my area, but is just as effective. I find ibuprofen to be much more effective on my arthritis pain than acetaminophen such as Tylenol, or regular aspirin.

Advil liquid gel works for me, when I have my menstrual cramps Advil is my best friend and some other pains too. Advil don't make my blood pressure go out like the other famous brand Mxxxxn, but I notice that the side effect is I loose my hair, it is rare but one of the side effects of advil. But anyways I have lots of hair and I hate pain, works for me.

Advil is the perfect over the counter medicine for me, specially when I get sick. I just take pills and I feel good after thirty to fourty-five minutes. Sometimes people just wonder what to do when they get sick, for me I always have advil in my medicine cabinet, purse all te time. I think, it's is good to trust some OTC medication.
