Your user aren't getting back to the form page, they are getting back to the
page that was generated thanks to the results from the form page, and in your
case that page is the redirection, which leads that they are directly
redirected back to the page from where they wanted to get to the form page
with help of the backbutton on the browser. If you want to get past that
redirection, you need to hastily dubble click on the backbutton to get to the
form page. Better solutions to your problem has been already posted.
