Indications & Clinical Uses

Phenylephrine Hydrochloride and Paracetamol are used to treat symptoms of the common cold and influenza.

  • Nasal congestion: reduces swelling of nasal mucosa to improve airflow.
  • Headache: alleviates pain associated with cold or flu.
  • Fever: lowers elevated body temperature.
  • Body aches: eases muscular discomfort linked to viral illness.

How It Works

  • Phenylephrine hydrochloride acts as an alpha‑adrenergic agonist, causing vasoconstriction of nasal mucosal vessels and decreasing congestion. Paracetamol provides analgesic and antipyretic effects primarily through central inhibition of cyclooxygenase enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis to relieve pain and lower fever.

Side Effects

Common Side Effects

  • Mild nausea or stomach upset.
  • Transient dizziness.
  • Headache unrelated to the underlying illness.
  • Dry mouth or throat irritation.
  • Mild insomnia.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) with rash, swelling, or breathing difficulty.
  • Elevated blood pressure or rapid heart rate.
  • Liver function abnormalities in rare cases.

Precautions & Warnings

Before using this product, consider the following precautions:

  • Dosage: follow prescriber instructions and do not exceed the recommended amount.
  • Underlying conditions: avoid if you have severe hypertension or cardiovascular disease.
  • Alcohol: limit intake as it may increase liver load.
  • Other medications: consult a healthcare professional before combining with other analgesics or decongestants.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding: safety not established; discuss with a doctor.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25°C, in the original pack, and protect from moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Phenylephrine Hydrochloride and Paracetamol may interact with several drug classes.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs): risk of hypertensive crisis.
  • Other nasal decongestants: may cause excessive vasoconstriction.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): may increase bleeding risk.
  • Alcohol: can enhance liver toxicity.
  • Additional paracetamol‑containing products: risk of overdose and liver injury.

Frequently Asked Questions

Max Strength Cold & Flu Relief Blackcurrant Flavour is an over‑the‑counter oral product that combines phenylephrine hydrochloride and paracetamol to temporarily relieve nasal congestion, headache, fever, and body aches that accompany the common cold and influenza.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride acts as an alpha‑adrenergic agonist, causing the blood vessels in the nasal lining to constrict. This vasoconstriction reduces swelling and opens the nasal passages, helping to relieve congestion associated with colds and flu.

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 and never exceed the recommended amount.

Safety data for phenylephrine hydrochloride and paracetamol in pregnancy or lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding should discuss use with their doctor before taking 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, this combination provides both a decongestant (phenylephrine) and an analgesic/antipyretic (paracetamol) in one tablet, offering broader symptom relief. It may be preferred over separate dosing when convenience and rapid multi‑symptom control are desired.

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

The product is taken orally with a full glass of water. It should be swallowed whole and not chewed or crushed, unless the label or a healthcare professional advises otherwise.

Serious risks include severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, marked increases in blood pressure or heart rate, and rare liver function abnormalities. Immediate medical attention is required if any of these symptoms occur.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to phenylephrine, paracetamol, or any excipients should avoid the product. It is also contraindicated in patients with severe hypertension, certain cardiovascular disorders, or those taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors.
