Q: Is this safe to take
submitted by DIMPLES - 6 months ago
A: Check out pubmed articles. This is safe to take, the two meds are processed through different organs (kidney vs liver) and work on different ways to relieve pain: basically inflammation and nerve pain which are often the two ways pain affects you when you have tooth pain or back/neck pain, in fact it’s this combo that’s replacing opioid use for pain in many circumstances…both of the medications can take their toll on your body if taken for too long so if the pain persists then go to a dr…no, I’m not a doctor but I have chronic pain conditions as does one of my kids so I see a lot of specialists and do a lot of research
submitted byKate - 5 months agoA: Dear Dimples, please note that our product are perfectly safe to take when following the directions outlined on the label. If you want to make sure that the product is the best fit for you, I can always speak to your doctor and local pharmacist.

Q: Is it safe for a person over eighty to advil?
submitted by bduodu - 1 year ago
A: The description at the top of page is mis-leading. As the product information below states 250 acetaminophen and 500 ibuprofen per capsule. A far cry from 125. Will call Mfg to confirm.
submitted byTarget customer - 6 months agoA: Dear, bduodu, please note that for use of Advil dual action by children under 12 years of age, you need to ask a doctor. in each specific case.
submitted byHaleon - 1 year agoBrand expert
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 agoA: 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.] Used this the day after a work out where neck and shoulder muscle cramps gave me a low headache. In about half an hour, it starter working and relieved both, to varying degrees. Most of the headache was gone and about 80% of the muscle aches.

[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!
