Both the common cold and flu-like illness are spread by inhaling airborne viruses after an infected individual sneezes or coughs. When cold viruses enter the nose, they attach to the nasal lining, where they multiply and spread, triggering the body’s immune response. This results in symptoms such as sore throat, stuffy or runny nose, fever, headache or coughing. As the viruses continue to multiply and spread, cold symptoms develop further. Lemsip First Action™ nasal spray contains Carragelose and kappa-Carrageenan, which forms a shielding layer on the surface of the nasal mucosa and helps trap viruses. It is clinically proven to help shorten the duration of cold and flu-like symptoms by up to 2 days, when used at 1st signs.
