Lemsip Max Cold Flu Blackcurrant Sachets for Symptom Relief

 

You can find effective relief from cold and flu symptoms with these blackcurrant flavoured sachets. Each sachet contains paracetamol and phenylephrine hydrochloride to help reduce fever, ease aches and pains, and clear nasal congestion. The convenient sachet format allows you to prepare a hot drink that provides soothing relief when you need it most.

This medicine combines two active ingredients that work together to target multiple cold and flu symptoms. The pleasant blackcurrant flavour makes taking your medicine more comfortable during illness. You receive 10 sachets in each pack, providing several days of treatment for your symptoms.

 

How These Cold and Flu Sachets Work

 

The paracetamol in each sachet works by blocking pain signals in your brain and helping to reduce your body temperature when you have a fever. This provides relief from headaches, muscle aches, and the general discomfort associated with cold and flu symptoms.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride acts as a decongestant by narrowing blood vessels in your nasal passages. This reduces swelling and helps clear blocked sinuses, making it easier for you to breathe through your nose. The combination of these ingredients addresses both the pain and congestion aspects of your illness.

 

Who Can Benefit from This Cold Remedy

 

These sachets are suitable for adults and children over 12 years who are experiencing cold and flu symptoms. You may find this medicine particularly helpful if you're dealing with multiple symptoms simultaneously, as it targets several areas of discomfort. The hot drink format can be especially comforting when you're feeling unwell and need additional fluids.

This lemsip max cold flu treatment is ideal for people who prefer liquid medicines or have difficulty swallowing tablets. You might also appreciate the convenience if you're at work or travelling, as the sachets are easy to carry and prepare. Consider exploring our cold and flu collection for additional symptom relief options.

  • Adults and children over 12 years of age
  • People experiencing multiple cold and flu symptoms
  • Those who prefer hot liquid medicines
  • Individuals needing convenient, portable symptom relief

 

Why Choose Blackcurrant Flavoured Relief

 

The blackcurrant flavouring helps mask the medicinal taste of the active ingredients, making your treatment more pleasant to take. This can be particularly important when you're feeling unwell and may be sensitive to strong tastes or odours. The familiar fruit flavour provides comfort during illness.

Taking your medicine as a warm drink also provides additional benefits beyond the active ingredients. The heat can help soothe your throat, whilst the liquid helps maintain your fluid intake during illness. This dual approach supports your recovery by addressing both medicinal and comfort needs.

 

Storage and Handling Requirements

 

You should store these sachets in a cool, dry place below 25°C and keep them out of reach of children. The individual sachet packaging helps protect the medicine from moisture and maintains its effectiveness until you're ready to use it. Check the expiry date before use and do not use sachets that appear damaged or have been exposed to excessive heat or moisture.

Each sachet is designed for single use only. You should use the entire contents of one sachet to prepare one dose, and any unused prepared solution should be discarded. Do not store prepared drinks for later use, as this may affect the medicine's effectiveness and safety.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

 

Recommended Dosage for Adults and Children

You should dissolve the contents of one sachet in a mug of hot water and stir well before drinking. Adults and children over 12 years can take one sachet every 4 to 6 hours as needed for symptom relief. You should not exceed 4 sachets in any 24-hour period, and you must leave at least 4 hours between doses.

Take your dose with or after food if you experience stomach discomfort. The hot water should not be boiling when you add the sachet contents, as this may affect the medicine. Allow boiled water to cool slightly before mixing your dose.

Important Administration Guidelines

You should not take this medicine for more than 3 days for fever relief or 5 days for pain relief without consulting your doctor or pharmacist. If your symptoms persist or worsen during treatment, you should seek medical advice promptly. Do not exceed the stated dose, as this may cause serious harm to your liver.

You must not take this medicine with other paracetamol-containing products, as this increases your risk of overdose. Check the labels of any other medicines you're taking to ensure they don't contain paracetamol or phenylephrine. If you're unsure about any interactions, consult your pharmacist before taking this medicine.
