Hi Tracey,

 

Thanks for the information.  I should to clarify my statement.  You are correct Advil is filtered through the kidneys, however, it decreases liver functions so it may exacerbate problems individuals are having with Gleevec and liver functions (like me). I was told to stay away from Ibuprofen (advil) and Naproxen (Aleve) for acute pain relief and NSAID maintenance, unless supervised by a physician to relieve inflammation from gouty arthritis.   I was told to avoid the use of ibuprofen for acute pain relief and NSAID maintenance, if there is any possibility of renal insufficiency (kidney disease, kidney stones). 

 

Sorry if I caused any confusion.

 

Peter

Hi Peter,

I just wanted to say that from what I understand, Advil is filtered
through the kidneys and is not really too hard on the liver.  Unlike
Tylonal which is filtered through the liver.  Many of us take Advil
especially for this reason.

Take care,
Tracey
