Product overview

About Lemsip Max Capsules (8 pack)

The day-pack of Lemsip's swallow-and-go formula: paracetamol for fever, headache, sore throat and aches; phenylephrine for the blocked nose; caffeine to cut the fog — eight capsules, which is two days of doses to carry a cold's worst stretch. No kettle, no sachet, no taste.

When the small pack is the right pack

Colds peak for a day or two — the 8-pack covers exactly that without leaving half a box to expire. Commuters and travellers: this is the one for the bag.

How to take

Adults and children 16+: two capsules up to four times daily with water, at least four hours apart, maximum 8 capsules in 24 hours. No other paracetamol products alongside — ever.

Good to know

The decongestant isn't for high blood pressure, heart disease or MAOI users — our pharmacist can point to alternatives. A flu that's worsening after a week needs a GP, not another packet.
