I take this as directed starting the morning of a fill, and up to two days after to prevent and cut down on swelling. If you are not doing this before and after fills, you need to start, and you will notice the difference.

Very informative and helpful. Thank you for taking the time.

I've never heard of doing that but I was told no Ibuprofen since it can cause band/stomach erosion.....Hmmmm.

She (the nurse practitioner) actually stated Childrens Liquid Motrin. I did not like the grape nor orange flavor so I opted for the CVS brand of childrens Liquid ibuprophen in the bubble gum flavor. It tastes great, and it does not make me do the yucky shake dance when I swallow it. I have not had any problems with it.

What is the active ingredient in Motrin IB?

The active ingredient in Motrin IB is ibuprofen.

If you look at the top right side of the label of the bottle, it says compare to liquid Motrin. no difference to me. You will have to find what works for you. This is never going to be a one size fits all procedure.
