Q: The description states 500mg acetaminophen and 250mg ibuprofen. The actual pill bottle shown in the images (7th image) states 250mg acetaminophen and 125mg ibuprofen. This is a BIG DIFFERENCE...double the amount of medicine...

submitted by adpicucci - 4 years ago
  • A: I believe it's 2 pills = 500mg acetaminophen and 250mg ibuprofen. 1 pill = 250mg acetaminophen and 125mg ibuprofen.

    submitted byJJ - 4 years ago
  • A: The 500/250 is per dose; a dose is two caps. The 250/125 is per cap.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect passion meds to keep in my purse. I generally prefer just ibuprofen, but won't complain about some acetaminophen in there for an extra kick. These are extra effective against tension headaches.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A product that takes away multiple pain or aches is amazing. I take some in a small container because you never know when it’ll be useful. Avoids prolonging uncomfortable pains like headaches and when lady flowers visits me every month, super ideal to have with you!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the best! It works quickly and knocks out the pain for a long time. It’s an easy to swallow pill with no weird aftertaste. I only need one of these instead of 2 or 3 other pain reliever medications

    Quite effective, but a little pricey for the amounts.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The bottle is empty now or I wouldve shown the pills and label, I had accidentally ripped the name off the label. Super effective, normal packaging, I feel they're a little overpriced for the amount you receive and how many you're meant to take each time. The ingredients are alright, though some I question because I'm unsure about them. I didn't notice any side effects, but I can't guarantee anyone else won't have any side effects. Thank you, Influenster, for the opportunity to test this product!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Advil Dual Action is a great option for tackling pain, as it combines ibuprofen and acetaminophen for powerful relief. It works fast, often easing my headaches and muscle aches within 30 minutes, and I love that it doesn’t make me feel sluggish afterward. Just be mindful of the dosage to avoid any stomach upset. Overall, it’s a reliable go-to for effective pain management! Also shoutout for the packaging - the tiny bottle is perfect to add to a purse or pocket.

    Always Advil

    originally posted on influenster.com
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Advil is a staple in our home. It's essential for myself and my oldest daughter. We tend to get immediate relief from headaches when using Advil. I love the packaging on this because it's perfect for a purse. Advil should come out with a neutral colored collection or a gold little case in this same design because my bag is see through and the packaging could be cuter.
