Allergic to advil or to aspirin?02/22/2008 |
Why persons who are allergic to aspirin can`t ingest Advil, if it doesn`t contains Acetyl Salicylic Acid, it contains ibuprophen?
Because aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents such as ibuprofen are functionally related so that a severe reaction would likely occur.
