 Children and adolescents: Do not give this medicine to children under 16 years of age.

Other medicines and Lemsip Max Day & Night Cold & Flu Relief Capsules Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines. • Do not take with other paracetamol-containing products • Do not take if you are taking or have taken within the last 14 days a medicine called a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), a medicine used to treat depression. • Concomitant use of other cough and cold medicines could lead to overdose and should therefore be avoided. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking: • Beta-blockers for high blood pressure, or vasodilators (drugs used to treat high blood pressure, leg pain due to vascular problems or Raynaud's syndrome) • Tricyclic antidepressants (a specific class of drugs used to treat depression), other decongestants, or barbiturates (used to treat sleep problems or epilepsy) • Other medicines. Some drugs may affect the way in which paracetamol works, including those used to treat blood cholesterol (cholestyramine) and nausea and vomiting (metoclopramide and domperidone). The effect of blood thinning drugs (warfarin and other coumarins) may be increased by paracetamol. Some drugs may affect the way in which phenylephrine works (digoxin and cardiac glycosides). The speed at which caffeine is disposed of by the body can be slowed down by cimetidine (used to reduce stomach acid), disulfiram (used to treat alcoholism) or oral contraceptives

 Pregnancy and breast-feeding: If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine. This product should not be used in women with a history of pre-eclampsia.

 Driving and using machines: This medicine can cause difficulty in sleeping, restlessness, nervousness or mental confusion. Do not drive or use machines if you are affected by any of these symptoms.

Usage / Instructions Expand

The capsules should be swallowed whole with water. Do not chew. It is important to drink plenty of fluids when suffering from colds and flu.

 If the symptoms of your cold and flu persist for more than 3 days, or worsen consult your pharmacist.

 Adults, the elderly and children aged 16 years and over: Daytime Take two red and yellow capsules every 4-6 hours during the day to a maximum of 3 doses when necessary. Do not take more than 6 red and yellow capsules in any 24 hours.
