Advil
Coated orange tablets
Advil is a brand name for ibuprofen, a common over-the-counter pain reliever and anti-inflammatory medication.
Like Tylenol for acetaminophen, the brand name often stands in for the generic: I need some Advil for this headache.
The drug reduces fever, eases minor aches, and treats inflammation.
