What is Advil Dual Action?
Advil Dual Action is a combination of ibuprofen (125 mg) and acetaminophen (250 mg) – two distinct mechanisms of action working together to fight pain.
How does Advil Dual Action work?
Advil Dual Action combines the pain-fighting power of its two active ingredients. Ibuprofen decreases the synthesis of pain caused by inflammation, while acetaminophen blocks pain signals.
How does Advil Dual Action work for 8 hours?
Advil Dual Action lasts for 8 hours due to the two different modes of action working in unison, resulting in prolonged pain-fighting power.
Are there any side effects or safety concerns?
Advil Dual Action combines two of the most widely used analgesics in the world, both with established efficacy and safety profiles. No new safety concerns were identified compared with each ingredient alone.
Each Advil Dual Action tablet contains 125 mg of ibuprofen and 250 mg of acetaminophen. Take 2 tablets every 8 hours for a total of 6 tablets per day.
