Frequently asked questions

What is Lemsip Cough Max For Mucus Cough And Cold used for?+
Lemsip Cough Max For Mucus Cough And Cold is an over‑the‑counter combination product designed to relieve common cold and flu symptoms such as fever, headache, nasal congestion, chest congestion and a productive cough. It combines analgesic, decongestant, expectorant and antiseptic actions to provide multi‑symptom relief.
How does the combination of paracetamol, phenylephrine, guaifenesin and cetylpyridinium chloride work?+
Paracetamol reduces pain and fever by inhibiting central cyclo‑oxygenase enzymes. Phenylephrine narrows blood vessels in the nasal passages, decreasing swelling and congestion. Guaifenesin thins airway mucus, making it easier to cough up. Cetylpyridinium chloride acts as an oral antiseptic, lowering bacterial load that can aggravate throat irritation.
