Summary: Ibuprofen Value Savings Bottle
Comment: This a great buy. If bought at 100 tablets per bottle over the counter store brand, it would cost $30-40 for a quantity of 1,000 tablets. That is a lot of tablets to be sure, but I will use them up long before their experation date, saving a chunk of change while I am at it!!!

Summary: Great Deal - Alternative to the Brand Name Stuff
Comment: If you deal with inflammation and have to take Advil or Motrin, you can take this generic form of Ibuprofen and get the same result. This is a fantastic deal if you take Ibuprofen regularly.
Highly recommended if this is part of a daily regimen. 1000 tablets is A LOT. The expiration date was reasonable 2010 (I believe). For me, this is no problem since I take ibuprofen pretty regularly.

Summary: Shipping kills the savings
Comment: With shipping cost, this product is about $10 per bottle of 500. Not a bad price, but the same thing at WalMart is just under $8 per bottle ($7.97 I think). So you pay an extra $4 for the convenience of having delivery to your door. This disparity can be reduced by ordering more than one unit, which is two bottles of 500, at a time. Check the postage chart the company supplies, do the math, and it could be worth your time. Of course this only works if you are a heavy and regular user of ibuprofen. Still a way better buy than name brands no matter what you do. No sense paying for the Motrin or Advil name when this product is the same thing. The seller has so far proved to be reliable and prompt. Too bad they can't be more reasonable with their shipping charges.

Summary: Generic Ibuprofen is a Great Product and a Great Buy
Comment: Ibuprofen is a good over the counter analgesic (pain reliever) that works on mild to moderate pain. Ibuprofen is the generic drug name,and is the active ingredient in Advil and Motrin.
It comes in 200 milligam tablets/capsules. For most mild aches, it can be quite effective. Not only does Ibuprofen relieve pain, but it also is a real good anti-inflammatory medication (it lessens swelling). Thus it is also good for arthritis pain, any joint or muscle sprains or strains, and real good for toothache pain too.
If two tablets are taken, it is equivalent to the previously by prescription only product, "Motrin". Two tablets, or 400 mg of Ibuprofen is for mild to moderate pain. Three tablets, 600 mg, is for moderate to moderately severe pain. All three doses, 200, 400, and 600 mg can be taken every 4 hours as needed for pain. Four tablets is the highest prescribed dose (800 mg), and should only be taken once every 6 hours. Reserve the four tablet dosaging for your really severe pain. The 800mg dose is equivalent to Tylenol #3 (anetaminophen with codiene), another good pain reliever.
Ibuprofen can cause stomach upset and mild stomach bleeding, therefore, always take it with a large cup of water and to minimize gastric upset, eat something with it, like some yogurt, some applesauce, a piece of toast, etc. The extra food will help protect your gut.
LIke any medication, Ibuprofen should not be taken day after day for an extended period of time without a doctor's supervision. Ibuprofen in higher doses or low continuous doses can damage your liver and kidneys. If you are planning to use Ibuprofen for only a few days, you should be able to tolerate 2-3 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed (provided you are a generally healthy adult, are not allergic to Ibuprofen, have no existing liver or kidney disease, and have no stomach ulcers or chronic gut condition like Irritable Bowel Syndrome or Chron's Disease.
How you purchase Ibuprofen is up to you, but there are some real good generic Ibuprofen products that are less than half the cost of the "name brand" products (Advil, Motrin). Both the generic and the name brand are equal in terms of strength and effectiveness. The only thing different about the name brand is fancier packaging and perhaps easier to swallow dose forms.
I buy my Ibuprofen in the generic form; not only do I get it cheaper, I get more tablets too.
