Despite all our efforts to stay healthy, exercise properly, and eat right, the body can still fall to over thousands of viruses and bacteria. When the body becomes afflicted with health conditions like colds and coughs, day-to-day activities become difficult to do. These colds and coughs can develop complications and lead to further sicknesses like the flu. Coping with symptoms like blocked nose, sneezing, sore throat, and headache can put a toll on the body.

When it comes to situations like this, it's time to get your hands on some Lemsip!

About Lemsip

Lemsip began decades of years ago in 1969 in the United Kingdom. Lemsip has been producing cold and flu remedies for more than forty years. Back then, it was known as Reckitt and Colman, and it was the first company to produce medicated hot lemon drink. The lemon drink they produced was specifically developed and uniquely formulated so it could relieve symptoms of colds and flu.

Lemsip improved this formula during the 1970s, aiming for a drink that was more palatable. Around this time, they also added the famous Lemsip logo of the sword and circle image. The year 1980 saw the addition of the blackcurrant flavour and by 1990 Lemsip has expanded into producing cold and flu capsules. Recently, Lemsip has begun producing flavoured tablets as well.

Lemsip products don't contain sugar or lactose. They are suitable for adults and children over the age of twelve only. Some Lemsip products are not for vegetarians. People with a history of high blood pressure or hypertension, cardiovascular health conditions, asthma, and hyperthyroidism should consult their doctors before taking Lepsim. Pregnant women and those who are breastfeeding should also consult with their doctors beforehand.

What are the benefits of Lemsip products?

Lemsip products are specially formulated to relieve the symptoms caused by colds, coughs, and flu. Cold symptoms include sore throat, sneezing, fever and muscle aches, and headaches. One mug of Lemsip's lemon hot drinks can relieve these symptoms, because Lemsip has decongestants and paracetamol. This lemon drink provides warm and comforting action and keeps your body's fluid levels high so you can quickly get back on the road to recovery!

A cough is a respiratory tract infection that has different types: mucus cough is when the body produces excess mucus that turns yellow or green, dry or tickly cough is accompanied by a scratchy tickle in the throat, and chesty cough is when phlegm settles in the lower airways and lungs. Lemsip cough relief products contain the expectorant guaifenesin. Guaifenesin helps loosen the phlegm in the chest and the throat, making it easier to expel it through the mouth. This reduces chest congestion by also thinning the mucus.

Flu is fever combined with severe cold and body aches. The fever is the body's way of killing infective agents by producing chemicals called pyrogens. Lemsip flu products relieve the symptoms of sore throat and body pain by adding slight painkiller effects.
