I have a man cold and taking my usual bowl of chicken soup washed down with a Lemsip Max but now I’m thinking… if the main ingrediant of a Lemsip is paracetamol, why don’t I just have a paracetamol? It’d cost alot less.

Whats the point of a Lemsip other than the paracetamol?

Thank you.

Now that you’ve read this, you now have a cold sorry thats just how this one works.

    Phenylephrine is the new stuff that’s basically useless, it’s not controlled because it basically does nothing.

    No, it’s not controlled because it can’t be used to make meth. It doing nothing is just an unfortunate coincidence. There are other decongestants that aren’t controlled but do work.

      What you’re saying doesn’t conflict with what I’m saying. It does nothing, so there’s no reason to control it. 😆
