Does advil interact with dairy products?



After reviewing the sources provided, there is no evidence to suggest that Advil interacts with dairy products. Advil is a brand name for ibuprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat pain, fever, and inflammation. According to Drug Patent Watch [1], the active ingredient in Advil is ibuprofen, and there is no mention of dairy products interacting with ibuprofen.

The Pharmacy Times [2] article discusses dangerous food-drug interactions, but Advil and dairy products are not mentioned as interacting. The article does mention that some NSAIDs can cause gastrointestinal side effects, and consuming dairy products may help alleviate these side effects. However, this is not an interaction between the drug and the dairy product.

A study published in the National Center for Biotechnology Information [3] suggests that consuming milk with ibuprofen may actually increase the effectiveness of the drug. The study found that milk increased the absorption of ibuprofen, leading to higher blood levels of the drug and a longer duration of pain relief. However, this is not considered an interaction that would be harmful or dangerous.

In conclusion, based on the sources provided, there is no evidence to suggest that Advil interacts with dairy products. However, consuming milk with ibuprofen may increase the effectiveness of the drug. As with any medication, it is always best to consult with a healthcare provider before taking Advil or any other medication.
