Technically, yes - it is physically possible to chew on an Advil LiquiGel. However, the medication inside is not intended to contact the tissues of your mouth, so it may be painful to do so. I would also suspect the taste to be absolutely wretched.

∙ 14y agoDepends on age, weight, and how much pain he/she is in. Children's Motrin( basically the ibuprofen in Advil) dosage is usually a 100mg every 4 to 6 hours. If you child is in really bad pain, 10& up, or is younger but large for his or her age, then you can give them one. Remember each Advil liqui-gel is 200mg. It really does depend on the child; you don't want to let their body get used to it because then when they are older the require a stronger dose for ex. back aches or headaches.

Do Advil pm liquid gel caps work faster than Advil tablets?
Just today I did an experiment for my chemistry class testing the rates at which Advil tablets, caplets, gel caplets, and Liquid-gels dissolve in simulated stomach acid. I used diluted Hydrochloric acid to simulate the stomach acid. I assume in water each will take longer to dissolve, but they will still dissolve in the same order.In the acid, Caplets and Tablets both opened completely and were a fine powder on the bottom of the container after 10 minutes.After 30 minutes, the Liquid-gel had gotten soft and the contents leaked out from two spots. It took over an hour and a half for all of the contents to leave the gel coating.The Gel Caplets I really recommend taking only if the three above are not available. After and hour and a half, the coating became soft but was not open anywhere. When I finally removed it from the acid, the coating tore and inside was the ibuprofin powder, completely dry and shaped just like the original pill.So quickest to slowest dissolving rate:Caplets/Tablets, Liquid-Gels, Gel Caplets

What is the bioavailability of Advil gel caps vs their regular pill?
While I am not intimate with the raw data for this, you can be certain that a major pharmaceutical firm would not provide pills or gel caps at the identical dose unless there were certainty that the two are equally bioavailable. ---- In fact, the difference is in pharmacokinetics.. Liquigel are absorbed 10 minutes faster than regular ones.. this means an absorption in 15-20 minutes instead of 25-30 minutes. This 10 minutes is not very important... but in migraines.. every minute counts! ---- I am intimate with the raw data. The big issue is is your stomach affected by Advil? Advil tablets are designed not to dissolve until they reach the intestine. This resolves stomach issues. Although people taking broken or chipped tablets can get around this unknowingly. The Liquid Gel Advil designed by Robert Dicianni, and George Van Parys along with Banner Pharmacaps our the originators of the liquid gel concept.
