Was sold 'Pharmacies Choice' Ibuprofen + Codeine. Pretty good value at 12.8mg x 96 for
xx bucks, but I've never done an extraction with ibuprofen before, will see how it goes and report back.
Ok, I've got it filtering now, I think I may have the same brand as Blau1005 mentioned earlier because the liquid was nowhere near as thick as usual, and it looks like there's less solids in the actual filter. Also the liquid dropping out into the cup is a lot foggier than normal.
Not sure if I want to drink it :/ It's ibuprofen so it won't kill me, but it might make me feel like shit for a while. I'll let the process finish and see how it looks. If anyone has any experience with this brand (or similar) please chime in!
Ok, the less mass left inside the filter is obviously accounted for when I remembered that these pills only have 200mg ibuprofen, instead of 500mg APAP, so in reality there should only be 40% the weight left inside the coffee filter.
I'm still kind of concerned about how foggy the liquid is though, I might run it through another filter because there's a lot of 'something' in there, and I don't know if it's binders or ibuprofen or what, but obviously something got through that doesn't get through from the APAP/Codeine pills.
Looking through an archived thread I googled, apparently a lot of people have had similar issues with ibuprofen. Oh well, I'll filter it again and hope for the best, worst case scenario it makes me sick for a few hours and I can count it for a learning experience.
Well, it appears the extra filtering achieved nothing as far as getting additional solids out of the mixture. Bottoms up, let's see how this goes.
And it tastes as foul as ever
