Do you use liquid Motrin (Ibuprofen)?



Recommended Posts

I use the Junior chewable motrin when I need to. I like the grape flavor the best. 2 is worth one adult Motrin

That's really funny. I considered doing that, but when trying to convert the Infant kind we had in the medicine cabinet, I figured I'd need 2 or 3 bottles to cover me!!!! Dare I ask how many you take? I'm about 15-20 pounds heavier than you.

Thanks in advance!

I use 2-3 junior tablets if I need them. That's the lowest adult dose. Before surgery, because my knees and back hurt all the time, I was taking 800-1000 mg. of Motrin every morning :thumbup:. With the weight I've lost, I no longer hurt and just need it occasionally.

I just asked my doctor this very same question on Monday - what can I take when my back goes out as Tylenol does nothing. He said Advil - liqui-gels are fine.

I also start with just one and that usually does the trick!

Thanks for the suggestion, but how long ago did you have surgery? I have no issues swallowing my thyroid medication, but it's tiny....I worry about the size of the Advil liqui-gels...they don't get stuck on you??
