Brand History & Trademark Analysis

Nurofen has been registered in the UK since the 1980s for ibuprofen-based pain relief products. The brand, owned by Reckitt Benckiser, became the UK's leading branded ibuprofen product. In 2016, Nurofen faced regulatory action in Australia for marketing identical formulations under different 'targeted' pain names, a case that highlighted the tension between trademark positioning and consumer protection.
