Frequently asked questions

What is Night Nurse used for?+
Night Nurse is an over‑the‑counter oral syrup that combines a cough suppressant, an antihistamine and an analgesic to relieve common cold and flu symptoms such as coughing, nasal congestion, sore throat, headache, fever and difficulty sleeping.
How does dextromethorphan work in Night Nurse?+
