What is Beechams All in One Cold and Flu?

Taking Beechams All in One Cold and Flu Tablets can arrest symptoms, helping to soothe discomfort caused by colds and flu.
Produced by GlaxoSmithKline, these tablets can be used by adults and children over the age of 16 years for up to 5 days. They are most beneficial when single-ingredient treatments like paracetamol alone don't provide adequate relief.
How does Beechams All in One Cold and Flu work?
Beechams All in One Cold and Flu Tablets contain three active ingredients: paracetamol, phenylephrine, and guaifenesin. Paracetamol serves as a painkiller, inhibiting pain signals to the brain, while phenylephrine functions as a decongestant, and guaifenesin acts as an expectorant, easing chesty coughs.
When Beechams All in One Cold and Flu Tablets are taken, they relieve the symptoms of cold and flu, soothing headaches, body aches, and clearing blocked noses and mucus congestion.
How quickly does Beechams All in One Cold and Flu work?
When Beechams All in One Cold and Flu Tablets are taken as directed in the Patient Information Leaflet, most individuals will find substantial relief from persistent cold and flu symptoms within 30 - 60 minutes. You should continue to take the advised dose of Beechams every four hours for a maximum of five days, until the symptoms have abated.
Alternatives to Beechams All in One Cold and Flu
Millions in the UK are affected by colds and flu, but the symptoms and severity can vary significantly. Thus, it's vital to find a treatment that suits you.
Many people can control cold and flu symptoms with simple painkillers like paracetamol or ibuprofen and over-the-counter cold and flu remedies like Beechams All in One, Sudafed, or Lemsip for enhanced relief.
If you've tried over-the-counter remedies and they're not sufficiently easing your cold and flu symptoms, you should seek advice from your doctor or a pharmacist about additional treatments.
