Beechams Powders Sachets Information

    Beechams Powders Sachets are a formidable cold and flu treatment, containing two active ingredients - aspirin and caffeine - to tackle a spectrum of symptoms.

    Taking Beechams Powders Sachets can bring symptoms to a halt, aiding in easing the discomfort caused by colds and flu.

    Produced by GlaxoSmithKline, these sachets are suitable for adults and children over the age of 16 years and can be taken as required following the guidance on the packaging. They are especially effective when simple painkillers such as paracetamol on their own don't provide enough relief.

    Beechams Powders Sachets contain two active ingredients: aspirin and caffeine. Aspirin serves as a painkiller and anti-inflammatory, easing pain and reducing swelling, while caffeine acts as a mild stimulant, helping to increase alertness and concentration.

    When Beechams Powders Sachets are taken, they help to relieve the symptoms of cold and flu, reducing headaches, sore throats, and easing muscle aches and pains.

    How quickly does Beechams Powders Sachets work?

    When Beechams Powders Sachets are taken as directed in the Patient Information Leaflet, most individuals will experience notable relief from persistent cold and flu symptoms within 30 - 60 minutes. It is advisable to continue taking the recommended dose of Beechams Powders Sachets every four hours for a maximum of five days, until the symptoms have abated.

    Please note, always follow the guidance provided in the Patient Information Leaflet and consult a healthcare professional if you have any concerns or if symptoms persist.

    Millions of people in the UK are afflicted by colds and flu, and the symptoms and severity can differ significantly. As such, it's imperative to find a treatment that's tailored to your needs. For more information on the range of treatments available at The Independent Pharmacy, do visit our Cold and Flu Advice page.

    For many, managing the symptoms of colds and flu can be achieved with simple painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen. Additionally, these painkillers can be taken in conjunction with over-the-counter cold and flu remedies like Beechams Powders Sachets, Sudafed, or Lemsip to provide enhanced relief.

    If you have tried over-the-counter solutions and find that they are not adequately alleviating your cold and flu symptoms, it’s advisable to consult with your GP or a pharmacist regarding additional treatment options.
