Nuromol about 50p instead of £5

I've seen loads of adverts for Nuromol (apparently its a new combination of painkillers that is shown to be more effective than just taking paracetamol or ibuprofen). If you look at it though its simply 200mg ibuprofen and 500 of paracetamol. If you buy generic packs of both for about 16p each and take them at the same time you have exactly the same you just have to take 2 tablets rather than 1 (you could also take them a couple of hours apart and alternate but of course all things like that should be discussed with a pharmacist. Thought I would post though as at £5 for a pack of 24 and its claims of being a new painkiller when its just a new marketing ploy!

sorry, but am I missing something here? Where's the grabbit, as those generic packs of tablets are that price most of the time.

I get it the OP is trying to help us save money by warning us of the new product.

I'm a Pharmacy student, and I originally thought the same thing. However, the focus seems to be on the time it takes to actually get to work. The company claims to have a fancy technology which means its absorbed much quicker and effectively. I'm not sure really...
