Benylin Day & Night Tablets

Benylin Day & Night Tablets relieve the symptoms of cold and flu. Each pack contains two types of tablets, formulated differently to provide the specific relief you need during the day and at night.

The day time tablets contain:
  • Paracetamol: an analgesic and antipyretic which helps to relieve pain and fever.
  • Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride: a decongestant which unblocks stuffy noses.
The night time tablets contain:
  • Paracetamol: an analgesic and antipyretic which helps to relieve pain and fever.
  • Diphenhydramine hydrochloride: an antihistamine which helps clear catarrh and so aids sleep.
Benylin Day & Night Tablets are suitable for adults and children aged over 12 years.
