Day Nurse is used for the day-time relief of the major symptoms of colds, chills
and flu. The medicine contains three active ingredients. Paracetamol
is a painkiller and reduces your temperature when you have a fever.
Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride is a decongestant which unblocks your nose and
sinuses helping you breathe more easily. Pholcodine is a cough suppressant that
helps relieve dry or tickly coughs. Day Nurse also helps relieve a sore throat.

Like all medicines Day Nurse can have side effects, but not everyone gets them.
The following effects may occur:
• Nervousness, difficulty sleeping
• Nausea and vomiting
• Dizziness
• Dry mouth may occasionally occur
• Hallucinations (particularly in children) have been reported rarely
• Nightmares, agitation, sweating and restlessness.
Stop taking this medicine and tell your doctor immediately if you experience:

prostate gland
• Allergic reactions such as skin rash, itching sometimes with breathing problems
or swelling of the lips, tongue, throat or face
• Skin rash or peeling or mouth ulcers
• Breathing problems. These are more likely if you have experienced them
before when taking other painkillers (such as ibuprofen and aspirin)
• Unexplained bruising and bleeding
• Sudden weight loss, loss of appetite or yellowing of the skin and eyes.
• Blurred vision
• Headache, ringing in the ears, irritability or shaking
• Rapid heart rate or palpitations
• Diarrhoea, constipation or stomach pain
• Inability to cough up excess phlegm on the chest
• Sudden severe headache.
• Sudden onset of fever, reddening of the skin, or many small pustules (possible

occur within the first 2 days of treatment with Day Nurse.
