Yes. : There is no contraindication to taking Advil, Motrin, Alleve or any other NSAID while on birth control pills provided you don't have any contraindications to NSAIDS - peptic ulcer, kidney failure, etc. it is very common for women on birth control pills to take Advil. As needed. Please take with food and limit use to prevent gastric irritation.
