There are more than one type of ibuprofen on the market. According to different dosage forms, there are granules, sustained-release capsules, tablets, suppositories, suspensions, etc. Among them, the most common and with the largest price difference are ibuprofen tablets and ibuprofen sustained-release capsules. There are two main reasons for the price difference between the two. Different dosages. Judging from the dosage alone, sustained-release capsules are 3-4 times that of ordinary ibuprofen, which leads to different usage and dosage. Ibuprofen tablets are cheap, with small dosages and more frequent use, which makes sustained-release capsules more convenient. But ibuprofen tablets also have their unique advantages. This 0.1g tablet has a relatively more accurate dosage, and the dosage can be adjusted according to the severity of the symptoms. Different characteristics of effectiveness. The characteristic of ibuprofen tablets is that they are directly digested by the stomach and take effect quickly. Usually, the effect can be seen half an hour after taking the medicine. However, this tablet form also has disadvantages. It comes and goes quickly, and the effective time is only 4-6 hours each time. The characteristic of sustained-release capsules is that they are absorbed by the intestines and take effect slowly, but they last for a long time and can last for 12 hours at a time. To summarize, if used as a regular medicine for COVID-19, there is not much difference in the effects between ibuprofen tablets and ibuprofen sustained-release capsules, so just use whichever you buy.
