Children's Advil and other forms of Advil are in a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Advil works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. Advil is used to reduce the fever, pain, inflammation, and stiffness caused by many conditions, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and abdominal cramps associated with menstruation.

If you or a loved one have taken Advil and suffered from Stevens Johnson Syndrome, you should contact us immediately. You may be entitled to compensation and we can help.
