FAQs

Who can take Lemsip Max Cold & Flu?

This product is suitable for adults and adolescents aged 16 years and over.

Can I take this if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

No, Lemsip Max Cold & Flu Blackcurrant should not be used during pregnancy. Phenylephrine has blood vessel constricting effects that could restrict blood supply to the placenta. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for advice on treating cold and flu symptoms during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

What are the active ingredients?

The active ingredients are Paracetamol and Phenylephrine Hydrochloride.

How many sachets can I take per day?

Adults and adolescents aged 16 years and over should take no more than four sachets in a 24-hour period.

How should I prepare the sachet?

Empty the contents of the sachet into a cup, add half a cup of hot (not boiling) water, and stir to dissolve.

Can children under 16 take this product?

No, this product is not recommended for children under 16 years of age.

What should I do if I take too much?

If you take more than the recommended dose, seek medical advice immediately. Contact your doctor or go to the nearest hospital accident and emergency department, even if you feel well. Take the packaging and any remaining medicine with you.

Troubleshooting

Sachet does not dissolve completely

Ensure you are using hot, but not boiling, water. Stir vigorously for a minute to help the powder dissolve fully. If issues persist, consult the patient information leaflet.

Unpleasant taste or texture

While blackcurrant flavored, individual taste perception varies. Ensure the water is hot enough for proper dissolution. Allow to cool slightly before drinking. Stirring again just before sipping may help.

Symptoms do not improve after use

If your symptoms worsen or do not improve after 3 days, consult your doctor. This product provides symptomatic relief and may not address the underlying cause.
