Teresa- After a day of gardening I was forced to take Aleve, yet I cut in half and was amazed it worked just the same as the full strength. The pain relief after the 24 hours, although not as complete, was still present for another day. That was a week ago and haven't taken on since. Your digestive tract issues sure could be related to your Nsaids so I understand why your GI doc is concerned. Have you tried experimenting with half to cut down on the negative side effects? I am also now wondering if 1/2 helped, could I take 1/4?

@hopeful33250 ,gardenjunkie. Ive had numerous stomach problems including an ulcer believe it or not drinking some 1/2@1/2 really helped before Id take an nsaid maybe this will help you if your tummy starts to hurt

Cutting the dose in half is always a good idea. Actually, my GI surgeries were not related to Advil but were from a rare form of digestive tract cancer (neuroendocrine tumors) but I know the Advil is hard on the GI tract, but the pain is much more or a problem. So, I'll keep with it for now. Thanks for the suggestion of halving them.
