Ibuprofen Capsules

Most Ibuprofen capsules contain a medicinal filling (either liquid or a powder). When the shell of the capsule is digested, the capsule's contents are absorbed by the body quicker, which helps to relieve pain faster.

Ibuprofen Suspension

Ibuprofen suspensions, also known as syrups, are pre-mixed liquids. Suspensions tend to be pleasantly flavoured which are more palatable for children and ideal for those who have difficulty swallowing tablets.

Ibuprofen Dissolvable

Dissolving tablets come as a larger tablet which breaks down in water and can be drunk. Some dissolve on the tongue without the need of water.
