Good to know
- Advil and Motrin IB are the same drug at the same dose: ibuprofen 200 mg per tablet, caplet or liquid-gel.
- Advil Migraine and Motrin IB Migraine are ibuprofen 200 mg liquid-filled capsules — the same dose as regular Advil Liqui-Gels and Motrin IB Liquid Gels.
- Advil Film-Coated tablets list ibuprofen sodium 256 mg ("provided as" 200 mg ibuprofen) — a different salt, so they are not listed in this group.
- Advil Dual Action is a different combination: ibuprofen 125 mg plus acetaminophen 250 mg.
