Did you buy the slow release ibuprofen in the pink packet?

I bought it at gourmet glatt.
I usually buy it from someone who sells them in tiny clear ziplock packets.
I’m wondering if it’s the same thing. I know technically it should be. It really didn’t work for me. I woke up with a headache.
Did anyone have a different experience?
It’s possible I was having a migraine and ibuprofen wouldn’t have been enough anyway.
By 3-4pm I ended up swallowing excedrin without water.

The ones who sold previously in clear ziplocks switched to the new color coded packaging this year. We got from same place as previously, and the packaging had switched. My husband had a good fast with the pink packet. (I took a different one.) Personally, I just find some fasts better than others, even with always taking time-release capsules.

So I must have been fighting a migraine.
It was expensive. I’m glad it worked for everyone else.

I did, but I also took a slow release caffeine packet.

Very interesting Op!
Same experience for me and I wondered the same thing!
I did chalk it up to different fasts go differently....however, last time I felt like I could feel the "kick" and relief of the time release pills and this time I did not.
