Sudafed Congestion & Headache Day & Night Capsules are an all-day treatment that works to relieve the effects of nasal congestion and a headache. This treatment contains two types of the capsule that help to relieve drowsiness during the day but also help to get a good night’s sleep with the night capsules. The night capsules contain two active ingredients that provide relief, which are:
- Paracetamol
- Phenylephrine
Paracetamol is a painkiller that helps to reduce aches and pains, and can also reduce a fever. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that helps to unblock the nose and help you to breathe easier. The day capsules contain both of those ingredients but also another active ingredient, caffeine. Caffeine is a mild stimulant that helps to reduce drowsiness. Caffeine and paracetamol combined can increase the effectiveness of the painkiller.
