What does Beechams all in one liquid do?

Beechams all in one liquid helps relieve the symptoms of the common cold, flu and chesty coughs, such as a headache, aches and pains, blocked nose and sore throat.

The liquid contains three active ingredients: paracetamol, phenylephrine and guaifenesin. Together, they work to relieve pain, loosen congestion and decrease swelling of your nose and ears.

Beechams all in one is an easy to swallow, sweet-tasting liquid, non-drowsy and suitable for most adults and children over the age of 12.

How and when should I take it?

The liquid is for oral use only. Your dose should be measured using the measuring cup provided.

The recommended dose for adults and children over the age of 12 is 20ml. Fill the measuring cup to the 20ml mark and drink.

Your dose may be repeated every 4 hours if needed, but do not take more than 4 doses in any 24 hour period.

This medicine should be used for a maximum of 5 days. If you think you need to take this medicine for longer than 5 days, talk to your doctor.

Do not exceed the recommended dose. The ingredients in Beechams all in one liquid may cause severe liver damage if taken in too high doses, too frequently.
