Benylin Day & Night tablets Information
What are Benylin Day & Night tablets?
Benylin Day & Night Tablets are a powerful cold and flu solution, boasting three active ingredients - paracetamol, pseudoephedrine, and diphenhydramine - to manage a spectrum of symptoms.
Consuming Benylin Day & Night Tablets can alleviate symptoms, easing the discomfort brought on by colds and flu.
These tablets are suitable for adults and children over the age of 16 years for up to 5 days. They are most effective when single-ingredient treatments like paracetamol alone fail to deliver satisfactory relief.
How does Benylin Day & Night tablets work?
Benylin Day & Night Tablets are comprised of three active ingredients: paracetamol, pseudoephedrine, and diphenhydramine. Paracetamol functions as an analgesic, intercepting pain signals to the brain. Pseudoephedrine serves as a decongestant, and diphenhydramine works as an antihistamine, aiding in the management of sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes.
Upon intake of Benylin Day & Night Tablets, they provide relief from cold and flu symptoms, soothing headaches, body aches, and clearing up nasal congestion and hay fever-like symptoms.
How quickly do Benylin Day & Night tablets work?
When Benylin Day & Night Tablets are consumed as instructed in the Patient Information Leaflet, most people will experience significant relief from continuous cold and flu symptoms within 30 - 60 minutes. It's recommended to continue taking the prescribed dose for a maximum of five days, until the symptoms have subsided.
Alternatives to Benylin Day & Night tablets
Millions across the UK suffer from colds and flu, but the symptoms and severity can differ significantly. Thus, it's essential to find a treatment that works for you.
Many individuals can manage cold and flu symptoms with simple analgesics like paracetamol or ibuprofen, and over-the-counter cold and flu remedies like Benylin Day & Night, Sudafed, or Lemsip for superior relief.
If you've tried over-the-counter remedies and they're not adequately alleviating your cold and flu symptoms, it would be wise to consult your doctor or a pharmacist for further treatments.
