Is Aleve Vegan? - UPDATE!

Dear Ms . Tuck :

Thank you for taking the time to contact Bayer HealthCare. We appreciate your
interest in ALEVE®.

We apologize for the delay in our response to your recent email. In response to
your inquiry, our Aleve tablets and caplets do not contain any animal
by-products. Our Aleve Smooth Gels will contain pork and the gelatin in the
Aleve Liquid Gels is derived from both pork and bovine (cow/beef). It is the
main ingredient in the gelatin shell.

If we may be of further assistance, please feel free to contact our Consumer
Relations Department.

Sincerely,

Marie Jett
Consumer Advisor

Aleve is vegan!
