Question

Is advil vegetarian? does it have a gelatin coating?

Answer 1

vegetarians can eat gelatin, vegans can't. you might not need it if you ate meat.

Answer 2

Is the desire to sacrifice your health over the coating on a medication a bit too much?

Seriously though, the gelatin coatings are used for plastic capsule pills (ie: dietary supplements, many capsule pharmaceuticals) as well as in the manufacturing of a lot of enterics.  If you can read the label and not see gelatin or tripe and/or other animal products listed as an inert ingredient than it's vegetarian.

Answer 3

Advil isn't vegetarian. It has bone in it and it has gelatin coating it.

Gelatin isn't vegetarian, someone said this above - they are wrong. Gelatin is animal bone, skin, and hooves.
