Is there any negative effects if you chop up those orange motrin pills and mix with water then take it? Because i am sick and my throat+tongue is kind of hard to swollen. Thanks.

Not really. Ibuprofen isn't time released or enteric coated. You really should take motrin, or advil, (they are the same drug, they just have a different name) with food to avoid stomach irritation. You could save yourself the trouble of having to crush the pills and buy liquid advil.

You shouldn't do that.



A lot of medicines and pills are "time-release", meaning they're designed to break down in your stomach slowly and release the medication over the course of a few hours.



If you crush the pills, you're dumping all of the medication into your system at once, which could overload your body.



That's one of the reasons that people sometimes die from trying to crush and snort Oxycontin.



Probably you'd be fine, but better safe than sorry. Why don't you just get some powdered aspirin or Theraflu with acetaminophen?

that kind of medicine is enteric coated.. you should not chop it cause it is designed to be released in your intestine to be absorbed.



it may cause you gastric irritations etc.

it will irritate your stomach eat food with your pill

doesn't it lessen the effect of the medicine..?
