Aspirin is known to have more G.I side effects, but motrin has plenty as well if not mostly the same. Motrin coated or uncoated, liquid or not, leaves an awful chemical taste in my mouth. Their coated is not enteric coated. Aspirin without enteric coating also leaves an awful taste in my mouth. So enteric coated ibuprofen would help me out and also have less G.I side effects (enteric coated aspirin doesn’t REALLY reduce G.I side effects by any significant amount, at least according to most trials). I know at least a few people with ulcers who can handle 1 aspirin enteric coated though. But the risk of G.I bleeding or other issues is not any better.

I don’t know if I’m the only one who experiences this phenomenon with odd tastes in my mouth from taking certain meds. Obv antibiotics and such can leave a metallic taste, but with motrin/ibuprofen/advil in any form, it’s the same chemically taste.
Uncoated or coated, but not enteric coated aspirin gives me a salicylic acid taste in my mouth and it feels like acne face pads are sitting in my stomach. As far as I am aware there’s no such enteric coated Motrin on the market. There’s gelcaps (advil), coated with motrin IB, but either one induces the bad taste if I take more than one.
