Lemsip Max Day Night Cold & Flu Relief Capsules

 

You can manage your cold and flu symptoms around the clock with this dual-action treatment system. The day capsules contain paracetamol and phenylephrine hydrochloride to relieve pain, reduce fever, and clear nasal congestion during your active hours. The night capsules add diphenhydramine hydrochloride to help you rest while continuing to treat your symptoms.

Each pack contains 16 day capsules and 8 night capsules, providing you with a complete treatment course. This lemsip max day night formulation addresses multiple cold and flu symptoms simultaneously, helping you maintain your daily routine while supporting recovery.

 

How This Dual Formula Works

 

The day capsules combine paracetamol for pain relief and fever reduction with phenylephrine hydrochloride, a decongestant that narrows blood vessels in your nasal passages to reduce swelling and congestion. This combination helps you breathe more easily whilst managing headaches, muscle aches, and elevated temperature.

The night capsules contain the same active ingredients plus diphenhydramine hydrochloride, an antihistamine with sedating properties. This additional ingredient helps you sleep whilst continuing to treat your cold and flu symptoms throughout the night, supporting your body's natural recovery processes.

 

Who Can Use These Cold Flu Capsules

 

These capsules are suitable for adults and children over 16 years experiencing multiple cold and flu symptoms. You should consider this treatment if you need both daytime symptom relief and nighttime support for better rest. The dual approach is particularly helpful when you want to maintain daily activities whilst ensuring adequate sleep for recovery.

This treatment is appropriate for you if you experience:

  • Headaches and body aches associated with cold or flu
  • Nasal congestion affecting breathing
  • Elevated temperature or feverish symptoms
  • Difficulty sleeping due to cold symptoms

You can find additional support for respiratory symptoms in our comprehensive Cold and Flu collection, which includes complementary treatments for various symptom combinations.

 

Why Choose Day and Night Treatment

 

The separate day and night formulations allow you to receive targeted treatment appropriate for different times. During the day, you get effective symptom relief without sedating effects, helping you maintain alertness and functionality. The night formula adds sleep support, recognising that quality rest is essential for immune system recovery.

This approach prevents the drowsiness that can occur with single-formula treatments containing antihistamines, whilst ensuring you receive appropriate symptom management throughout the 24-hour cycle. The timed release of different active ingredients optimises treatment effectiveness for your body's natural rhythms.

 

Clinical Suitability and Storage Requirements

 

You should store these capsules in a cool, dry place below 25°C, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the capsules in their original packaging until use to maintain stability and effectiveness. Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

You should not exceed the stated dose or use this product for more than 3 days without consulting a healthcare professional. If your symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice promptly as this may indicate a more serious condition requiring different treatment.

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

You should take two day capsules every 4-6 hours during the day as needed, with a maximum of 8 day capsules in 24 hours. Take the capsules with water, and you can have them with or without food. Do not exceed the maximum daily dose as this may cause serious harm to your liver or other organs.

Night Capsule Administration

You should take two night capsules approximately 20-30 minutes before bedtime with a glass of water. Take only one dose of night capsules per 24-hour period. The night capsules contain diphenhydramine which may cause drowsiness, so you should not drive or operate machinery after taking them. Allow at least 8 hours between taking night capsules and driving or performing tasks requiring alertness.
