Is it safe to take advil daily?



Advil is a brand name for the drug ibuprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat pain, fever, and inflammation [1]. While Advil can be an effective pain reliever, it is not recommended to take it daily for extended periods of time. According to the Cleveland Clinic, taking ibuprofen daily can increase the risk of stomach ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, and kidney damage [2]. Additionally, regular use of ibuprofen can interfere with the body's ability to repair and maintain healthy cartilage in joints, which can worsen joint pain over time [3]. It is important to follow the recommended dosage and frequency guidelines on the label, and to consult with a healthcare provider before taking Advil or any other medication on a daily basis.
