No.
How many ways can we say no to mixing drugs and alcohol?
How long after taking advil? That depends on why you take it in the first place, and if and when you may be taking more. The advil stays active in your system for many hours - just like alcohol remains in the system for hours. If you plan on another advil in 6 or 8 hours, the alcohol has already effected the drugs in your system and the remaining alcohol will effect the next dosage taken.
You can live without the alcohol for a day or two. Or, do you want to take a chance and be the next fried brain candidate on the streets.

It's depends on how much of both. If you're having an easy night out drinking and just a few Advil you should be okay, just don't over do it. No more that two Advil and now power-slamming Everclear, of course. The booze and the painkiller are going to work off of each other since they're both designed to numb parts of your brain. If you have a sensitivity to painkillers, such as a light-headed feeling, you want to avoid alcohol because it could eat at your stomach lining or make you super tired Aspirin is the safest if you must take pain killers while drinking.

Advil should be alright but Tylenol (acetaminophen) is not OK. It is hard on the liver to begin with and people who drink should never take acetaminophen at all. It is best to take nothing when drinking alcohol because you don't know what the affects can be. It may affect one person but not another person. And if you are in pain of any type it is best to treat the pain without alcohol.

There is no problem taking Advil (Ibuprofen) with Alcohol. Advil is not a depressent. However, I would advise against alcohol in general :)

Avoid it if at all possible.
Most of us are aware of the dangers of mixing alcohol with other depressants like tranquilizers, but the labels on almost all over the counter pain relief medications contain warnings concerning their use along with the use of alcohol. Alcohol and asprin can damage the stomach lining. Alcohol and tylenol (acetaminophen) can increase the risk of damage to the liver. Alcohol and Advil (ibuprofen) can cause ulcers and stomach bleeding.

In general, I'd advise you to not drink alcoholic beverages while using anf kind of medication, whether it be prescription or over-the-counter. There might be adverse effects that you wouldn't know about- ways that your body treats alcohol while on medication. It's probably not worth the risk.

it is ok, but try not to do it often. Just some advice; Advil has been proven to kill braincells. So try using something else like Tylenol! Beware alcohal is very bad for your liver! Never drink too muc or drive when you have had a lot!

NSAIDS like Aleve and Ibuprofen do not carry the same warnings about alcohol that Tylenol does because the NSAIDS are broken down by the kidneys, not the liver. While you still might want to concern yourself with gastric upset, you do not need to worry about liver damage.
