I have a man cold and taking my usual bowl of chicken soup washed down with a Lemsip Max but now I’m thinking… if the main ingrediant of a Lemsip is paracetamol, why don’t I just have a paracetamol? It’d cost alot less.
Whats the point of a Lemsip other than the paracetamol?
Thank you.
Now that you’ve read this, you now have a cold sorry thats just how this one works.
Phenylephrine has been proven to not work when ingested orally (nasal spray delivery was not part of the study).
So Paracetamol is not only cheaper, it’s the exact same therapeutic effect.
Thanks for catching that. I am not familiar with this product, so just went with the described contents. Frustrating that it is legal to sell.
