It totally depends on the adhesive but there's a few options you can try for a very small price.
Acetone is a standard solvent you'd find in a lab and you'd be amazed how many things it can dissolve. It's what makes nail polish remover work, so buy some and give it a try.
Also some mineral spirits (paint remover!) is a fine choice and will cost you very little...chances are, you'll already have some lying around.

The solvent is the substance in which the solute dissolves. The solvent does not itself dissolve because it is (usually) already a liquid. There are special cases.
