Is Motrin vegan?

Motrin does not have a dedicated vegan range; products may contain animal-derived ingredients (e.g., gelatin capsules).

Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.
