Does motrin 800 make you sleepy/drowsy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not exactly: Motrin or Advil are brands of ibuprofen and do not cause sleepiness. However, they are used to decrease pain and inflammation. By decreasing pain, the medication allows a person to more easily go to sleep, if her pain or inflammation had been keeping her up and awake.

My gyno gave me 800mg ibuprofen for my cramps. If I take one will it make me sleepy or drowsy or anything?
I asked earlier that I took 1600mg ibuprofen all at once (5"3/99lbs/girl) and they said it probably isn't that dangerous so can I just stay home or do I need to go to the hospital? I have dizzines, nausea, little heart pains and sleepiness.
