ibuprofen is primarily excreted through the kidneys. After metabolism in the liver, it is eliminated from the body mainly as metabolites in the urine, with a small percentage excreted as unchanged drug. Additionally, trace amounts can also be found in bile and feces. This renal excretion is why monitoring kidney function is important in patients taking ibuprofen, especially those with pre-existing kidney issues.

How long does it take for advil gels to come out of your body?

First let's define advil: Advil is a brand of ibuprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Advil is manufactured by Pfizer and has been on the market since 1984.So the correct question would be how long does it take ibuprofen to be excreted from the body. It is excreted primarily in urine through your renal system. That being said the medication has a half life of 1.8-2 hours so every 1.8-2 hours the amount of ibuprofen you had in your system is decreased by half. So use that information and apply the math to the dose of ibuprofen that you are taking and you'll discover a time in which the level of the medication is negligible.
