Lemsip Max Day & Night Cold & Flu Relief Capsules, 16 Capsules
Lemsip Max Day & Night Cold & Flu Relief Capsules help to relieve the symptoms of cold and flu, including headache, aches, pains, fever and congestion.
Lemsip Max Day & Night Cold & Flu Relief Capsules contain a combination of ingredients which are effective in relieving the symptoms associated with colds and flu, including relief of aches and pains, sore throats, headache, nasal congestion and lowering of temperature.
Paracetamol is a well-known painkiller (analgesic). It is effective against aches and pains, including a headache, and can also reduce a fever (antipyretic). Caffeine (a mild stimulant), helps relieve fatigue and drowsiness through the day (it is only used in the Day capsule). Phenylephrine hydrochloride (nasal decongestant) reduces swelling in the passages of the nose, relieving nasal congestion and reducing the pressure which may cause a headache.
