Beechams Flu Plus Caplets

Beechams Flu Plus Caplets provide effective relief from the major cold and flu symptoms, including headache, shivers, aches and pains, blocked nose and painful sinuses, catarrh, sore throat, fatigue and tiredness. They contain three active ingredients:
  • Paracetamol: a painkiller that also reduces your temperature when you have a fever.
  • Phenylephrine hydrochloride: unblocks your nose and sinuses helping you to breathe more easily.
  • Caffeine: a mild stimulant to relieve fatigue and tiredness.
Beechams Flu Plus Caplets are suitable for adults and children from 12 years.

Directions

  • Swallow 2 caplets every 4 hours as needed.
