Indications & Clinical Uses

Lemsip Max Sinus & Flu Hot Lemon, containing pseudoephedrine and paracetamol, is indicated for symptomatic relief of upper respiratory infections and influenza.

  • Sinus congestion: reduces nasal blockage and improves breathing.
  • Fever: lowers elevated body temperature.
  • Headache and body aches: alleviates pain associated with flu.
  • General flu symptoms: eases overall discomfort and malaise.

How It Works

  • Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride acts as an α‑adrenergic agonist, causing vasoconstriction of nasal mucosal vessels and thereby decreasing swelling and congestion. Paracetamol exerts central analgesic and antipyretic effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis in the brain, which lowers pain perception and body temperature.

Side Effects

Common Side Effects

  • Insomnia: difficulty falling or staying asleep.
  • Nervousness: feeling jittery or anxious.
  • Dry mouth: reduced salivation.
  • Nausea: upset stomach or feeling sick.
  • Dizziness: light‑headed sensation.
  • Increased heart rate: mild tachycardia.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • High blood pressure: significant elevation requiring medical attention.
  • Arrhythmia: irregular heart rhythm.
  • Severe allergic reaction: rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing (anaphylaxis).
  • Liver injury: signs of hepatitis or jaundice.
  • Seizures: convulsive episodes in susceptible individuals.

Precautions & Warnings

Before using Lemsip Max Sinus & Flu Hot Lemon, consider the following precautions.

  • Consult healthcare professional: if you have hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, thyroid disorders, or are taking MAO inhibitors.
  • Avoid use in children: not recommended for children under 12 years unless directed by a clinician.
  • Do not exceed recommended dose: follow prescriber or label instructions.
  • Avoid alcohol: may increase liver load and enhance side effects.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and heat.

Avoid Interactions

Lemsip Max Sinus & Flu Hot Lemon may interact with other medicines.

  • MAO inhibitors: risk of hypertensive crisis.
  • Other decongestants: additive cardiovascular stimulation.
  • Additional paracetamol products: potential hepatotoxicity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lemsip Max Sinus & Flu Hot Lemon is an over‑the‑counter oral product that combines pseudoephedrine and paracetamol to provide temporary relief from nasal congestion, fever, headache and body aches associated with colds, sinus pressure and influenza in adults.

Pseudoephedrine acts as an α‑adrenergic agonist, causing the blood vessels in the nasal lining to constrict. This reduces swelling and opens the airways, helping to alleviate sinus and nasal congestion.

The appropriate dose is determined by a prescriber or according to the product label. Patients should follow the specific instructions provided by their healthcare professional or the packaging, and should not exceed the recommended amount.

Safety in pregnancy and lactation has not been fully established for this combination. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should consult their healthcare provider before using the product.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Compared with single‑ingredient products, Lemsip Max offers both a decongestant (pseudoephedrine) and an analgesic/antipyretic (paracetamol) in one dose, which can simplify treatment of multiple flu symptoms. However, alternatives without pseudoephedrine may be preferred for patients with cardiovascular concerns.

Store the product at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C. Keep it in the original packaging, protect it from moisture and direct sunlight, and ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain product stability.

The medication is taken orally, usually with a glass of water. It should be swallowed whole and not chewed or dissolved unless the label specifically permits an alternative method of administration.

Serious risks include elevated blood pressure, arrhythmias, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, and potential liver injury from excessive paracetamol exposure. Patients experiencing any of these symptoms should seek immediate medical attention.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to pseudoephedrine, paracetamol or any excipients, those with uncontrolled hypertension, severe heart disease, certain thyroid disorders, or who are taking MAO inhibitors should avoid this product unless directed by a healthcare professional.
