Night Nurse Capsules for Cold and Flu Relief

 

You can rely on Night Nurse capsules to help manage your cold and flu symptoms whilst you sleep. This GSK medicine combines three active ingredients to tackle multiple symptoms simultaneously, allowing your body to rest and recover during the night.

Each capsule contains paracetamol for pain relief and fever reduction, promethazine hydrochloride as an antihistamine to dry up runny noses, and dextromethorphan hydrobromide to suppress troublesome coughs. This combination helps you get the restorative sleep you need when feeling unwell.

 

How Night Nurse Capsules Work

 

The three active ingredients work together to address different aspects of cold and flu symptoms. Paracetamol reduces your temperature and eases aches and pains, whilst the antihistamine component helps dry up nasal secretions and has a sedating effect to promote sleep.

The cough suppressant ingredient works on your brain's cough centre to reduce the urge to cough, helping prevent sleep disruption. This multi-symptom approach means you can address several uncomfortable symptoms with one medicine, making it easier to rest through the night.

 

Who Can Use Night Nurse Capsules

 

These capsules are suitable for adults and children over 12 years who are experiencing multiple cold and flu symptoms, particularly when these symptoms are disrupting sleep. You should consider this medicine if you're dealing with several symptoms at once rather than just one isolated problem.

Night Nurse capsules are particularly helpful for people who experience:

• Persistent coughing that prevents sleep
• Fever combined with aches and pains
• Runny nose alongside other cold symptoms
• Multiple symptoms that worsen at bedtime

Why Choose Night Nurse for Evening Relief

 

The sedating properties of this medicine make it particularly suitable for evening use, as it can help you fall asleep despite feeling unwell. Unlike some daytime cold medicines, Night Nurse is specifically formulated to work whilst you rest, allowing your body's natural healing processes to function optimally.

The convenience of addressing multiple symptoms with one medicine means you don't need to take several different products, reducing the complexity of your treatment routine when you're feeling poorly and just want to sleep.

 

Storage and Shelf Life Considerations

 

You should store your Night Nurse capsules in a cool, dry place below 25°C, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children. Keep the capsules in their original packaging until you're ready to use them, as this protects them from moisture and light.

Check the expiry date before use and never take capsules that have passed their expiry date. If you notice any changes in the appearance of the capsules, such as discolouration or softening, do not use them and dispose of them safely at your local pharmacy.
