The science behind the speed of Advil Liqui-Gel

MANILA, Philippines - Pfizer Consumer Healthcare, a division of Pfizer, brings another effective pain medication that works fast — the new Advil Liqui-Gel.

The speed of the new Advil Liqui-Gel has been scientifically and clinically proven by numerous studies done here and abroad.

With the new Advil Liqui-Gel, one can be sure of nothing but fast, effective, and safe pain relief from all kinds of pain.

Pfizer’s Research and Development Team harnessed the technology of liquid ibuprofen for the new Advil Liqui-Gel and almost tripled the rate at which ibuprofen can be absorbed by the body.

A third-party pharmacokinetic study conducted in Australia comparing the rate and extent of ibuprofen absorption showed that two 200 mg of Advil Liqui-Gel (a total of 400 mg) is absorbed faster than two 200 mg of ibuprofen in the regular tablet format.

The new Advil Liqui-Gel recorded a 35.58-minute body absorption speed, almost three times faster than regular ibuprofen tablets which recorded 93 minutes.

The new Advil Liqui-Gel was also compared to paracetamol, a very common household pain reliever.

Based on two separate clinical studies, it was proven that Advil Liqui-Gel, in both 200 mg and 400 mg doses, provides faster relief and superior overall analgesic efficacy compared to 1,000 mg of paracetamol (which is only available in 500 mg in the local market).

This faster and more effective pain relief of Advil Liqui-Gel versus the paracetamol molecule is proven in a wide range of pain — from mild to moderate pains such as headaches to very tough and severe pain like dental pain (toothache).

The new Advil Liqui-Gel is 200 mg liquid ibuprofen in a softgel capsule classified as a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID).

It is also classified as an antipyretic which can reduce fever. It is available over the counter in drugstores and supermarkets nationwide and may be bought in pieces or in packs of 10.
