A member asked:
Does ibuprofen dissolve fast when the body is active or when the body is resting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neither.: Exercise draws blood flow away from the gut and toward active muscle so that any ingested med should theoretically be absorbed more slowly when exercising. Realistically it probably doesn't make nay difference at all.
