FAQ
How does Lemsip Max Cold & Flu Capsules help relieve symptoms?
Lemsip Max relieves your symptoms by harnessing the properties of three powerful ingredients:
- Phenylephrine Hydrochloride: Highly effective in relieving nasal congestion.
- Paracetamol: An effective pain relief medication that can also reduce fevers.
- Caffeine: A stimulant that enhances energy and keeps you alert.
Paracetamol will relieve your symptoms, while phenylephrine hydrochloride treats the congestion associated with your cold. Caffeine is also vital, as many people experience drowsiness when fighting off a virus.
