Accidentally Chewed Advil - How To Discuss

Accidentally Chewed Advil

Did I accidentally chew ibuprofen? 3

I took two and drank it with ice water and the snow came in my mouth so I couldn't crush the ice and crushed one pill. I thought how are you? This is just above the motrin ib counter.

To update

Well, at least I didn't go down without explaining myself first. I was worried because I always thought the pills you took were bad ...

No, if he chews, he will.

It is okay to chew most pills. There are exceptions, such as extended release tablets, which are designed to be released over time. They say don't bite or chew, but I cut it in half after talking to my pharmacist. If in doubt, call your pharmacist, but it is okay to chew most pills, including ibuprofen, except for slow-release or extended-release pills. You're right, most people don't know what you're talking about and can't answer such an important question. I just want to make it clear to you that only the person who can give you the correct answer knows what he is talking about. If in doubt, you can always call the pharmacist and ask.

If you are one of these 800mg giants, your teeth may break. But nothing bad will happen. This is not an old pill that needs to be pumped.

Nothing but taste. everything will be alright.

Nothing serious will happen, but the bullet won't work.
