Combined painkilling power of ibuprofen with pseudoephedrine - a strong non-drowsy decongestant - to give you relief from cold or flu symptoms.

How Does Nurofen Cold & Flu Work?

• Nurofen Cold & Flu contains ibuprofen which belongs to a group of medicines known as non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
• NSAIDs provide relief by changing the body's response to pain, swelling and high temperature.
• Pseudoephedrine belongs to a group of drugs called vasoconstrictors which act on the blood vessels in the nose to relieve nasal congestion.
• Nurofen Cold & Flu is effective in clearing a blocked nose and sinuses, relieving aches, pains, headache and feverishness, and easing the discomfort of a sore throat.
