Overview

Buy Lemsip Cold & Flu Lemon Online

Lemsip Cold & Flu Lemon contains 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). Phenylephrine hydrochloride (nasal decongestant) reduces swelling in
the passages of the nose, relieving nasal congestion and reducing the pressure which may cause a headache.
