It's time for my newest Crowdtap review! Up next: Fact-acting Advil. Except when I'm pregnant (admittedly most of my married adult life-I've got four little ones!), i'm an ibuprofen girl when it comes to managing head aches. My husband is a little less picky, he'll use whatever I buy. When I have coupons, I love to stock up on advil (and hubby swears it works better than the generic brands, I don't see much of a difference). I jumped at the chance to try out the new film-coated advil. It's being advertised as fast-acting, and that's a pretty cool thing when you are dealing with pain.

I put mine aside and rounded up some volunteers to try it out. My husband was the first to step up to the plate. He works crazy shifts (inventory control in a warehouse overnights) and wakes up in the morning to do the school routine with our brood while I head to work. He used his fairly quickly, as daily life can cause him headache. He said it's definitely better than any generic he's used, and he thinks it's faster than normal advil as well. After a particularly long work shift and a night of fighting boys, I was able to try my sample late last week. I got heart burn right after taking it, which I googled and read it's a pretty common reaction to ibuprofen if you are sensitive to it. It's never happened to me before, and I use it fairly regularly. Heart burn aside, I did find that it alleviated my head ache faster than normal. I'll chalk the heart burn up to a random fluke and give it another go before switching back to my advil liquid-gels.
