Q: What is the difference between this Advil duel action “back pain relief” and the normal Advil duel action?
submitted by MEJ - 7 months ago
A: I suspect what the “brand expert” answered is that they’re the same, it’s just a marketing thing
submitted byKate - 6 months agoA: Great question! Advil Dual Action Back Pain has the same formula as Advil Dual Action. Both products are FDA approved and combine two of the leading pain relievers (ibuprofen and acetaminophen) recommended in expert guidelines for the treatment of back pain. Advil Dual Action Back Pain was introduced to highlight this pain condition as a new treatment option.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Advil dual action for back pain in exchange for my honest review. The packaging is small and fits in a purse or pocket convenient to take on the go. They last and do not need to worry about pain through out the day. Bang for your bucks for sure and it’s not expensive to purchase. And they have no smelly scent, they actually have no scent at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm so glad advil created a product to help with back pain as i struggle with it a lot. It's so easy to take and helps so fast. I take it when ever I feel my back starting to hurt and carry it with me everywhere I go. It's easy for me to open but I know it would be hard for children which is a relief. Thank you advil and influenster!
Works well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use advil extra strength for my lower back pain, and this one gives just enough relief to help me when I need to wait to use my medicine. It’s definitely worth the money to purchase it if you don’t have severe back pain. The bright box shows that it’s much different than other advil products.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently injured my lower back and the pain has been crazy intense. I was managing the pain by taking both acetaminophen and ibuprofen, which ended up being waaay too many pills to take throughout the day. I LOVE Advil’s dual action pills! These are specifically for back pain, and I can confirm that they work very well. I thought they dissolved relatively fast and took effect fast as well as lasted long. I definitely recommend these pills for back pain, or really any pain you might have!
Game changer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried Advil Dual Action with Acetaminophen, and I’m genuinely impressed. I’ve been dealing with stubborn back pain for a while, and most over-the-counter options just weren’t cutting it. But this one really delivered. What I love most is that it offers up to 8 hours of relief, which means I can go about my day without constantly reaching for another dose.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Doing hair, my back tends to hurt A LOT… I’ve always been an ibuprofen user, but there is something about this dial action that gets the job done ✅ I can’t get through a week without having and knowing if there is something back pain this dial action is there in my bag. It’s a little pricey but when I tell you it’s WORTH IT… it’s worth it. It doesn’t taste bad and the cap doesn’t fly off in my bag, it works and I have gotten a few other people to become dual action customers…
Super!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Combines Ibuprofen (anti-inflammatory) with Acetaminophen (pain relief), targeting both the source of pain and the discomfort itself. Works well for mild-to-moderate back pain from muscle strain, arthritis, or overexertion. Not a quick “instant relief” pill — usually kicks in within 30–45 minutes, lasting up to 8 hours. Comes in a standard plastic bottle with safety seal or blister packs for travel sizes. Clear labeling with dosage instructions and warnings. Easy-to-open lid, though the child-safety cap can be stiff for those with arthritis in their hands. Long shelf life (typically 2–3 years unopened). • Tablets hold up well in a medicine cabinet if kept dry and away from heat. • Coating helps prevent crumbling in the bottle over time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tiny bottle is so easy to carry around. I keep it in my bag and it barely takes up space. When my back starts acting up, it works pretty quickly and the pain eases for hours. I like that it tackles pain from two angles so I can actually get on with my day. Still, I make sure to read the warnings because it’s not something I would take every day. There are cautions you shouldn’t ignore. For me, it’s best for those once-in-a-while moments when my back really needs it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been struggling with stiff joints, neck and back pain for a couple of years now and Advil- Dual Action Acetaminophen (for back pain) has been able to alleviate some of the pain that I deal with! I like that there isn’t any caffeine in it so I can take it before bed at night, and it doesn’t upset my stomach if I take it without water or food. It may not last as long as I’d like, but it does seem to target the areas that need relief, and I am grateful that it works for me!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Advil Dual Action Back Pain was a great help in relieving the pain. The pills are small so they were easy to take. I liked the packaging because it has a safety lock, so in order to open you have to push down and twist.
