Yes at first I wasn't sure if it was connected but now I am. I very rarely take any medication. When I take Advil I'm fine for an hour or two and then I get very sleepy, so much so that I must sleep. So I think it is a side effect maybe just not for everyone.

Advil IS ibuprofen. Depends on the dosage on whether it makes a person tired.

Took 2 of em at once with water and started feeling very drowsy in about an hour. I think this happened last time I took the pill too.

I' looking at this article because I'm researching about Advil's effect on blood. I cant take statins, like Lipitor, because it causes joint pain. I thought that I once read that it also makes blood, as the article said, temporarily slippery. I also found that it make me sleepy. I tend to wake after about 4 hours of sleep. With Advil, I get about 6.
I also am aware that Cholesterol is produced by the body in the overnight hours. So my thinking on this is to take Advil t night for a dual, maybe triple, purpose...help me sleep, make my blood slippery so cholesterol doesn't stick as much and to replace my statin usage.

If I take Advil It knocks me right out. I only take when I’m at home because I know I’m going to be asleep in 20 mins.
